This double page spread is from NME magazine, of a Indie genre. With Florence also being the artist on the cover of this particular magazine, it shows her importance within the music genre. With one image used for the whole double page spread, it shows Florence's significance. 'USA got the love' is the heading of the article which perhaps tells readers that Florence has managed to conquer USA with her song 'You Got The Love'. As Florence is a UK artist, this could attract readers and Florence & The Machine fans especially as they could be interested to see she has broadened her horizons. Florence is sitting on a stack of boxes covered with an American flag. I think the message they are trying to portray is Florence sitting on her podium, climbing to the top and conquering America! The simple colour scheme of the page helps Florence stand out with her red hair and also helps the American flag stand out. This leaves Florence and the main topic of her conquering the USA be the main focus. The basic colour scheme also enables the magazine to appeal to a mixed gender of all different ages.
NME magazine's double page spread was very different to Kerrang's but more similar to Vibe magazine's. As I am creating an Indie magazine myself, I will deeply look into the features of this magazine to help me.
