Kerrang! Cover Analysis


Font: the masthead for this magazine is hidden behind the main image, however, it is recognisable as it is a well known magazine. The font used is a black upper case font and it looks as though the words are cracked. Most of the fonts used on this cover is block capitals for simplicity, it is easy to read and a bold to attract the target audiences eyes.
Structure/Layout: the overall appearance of the magazine cover is cluttered with writing and additional pictures. The main image is Hayley Williams the lead sing of Paramore, this shows that there will be an inside article featuring either just her or the whole band. This image is not smoothed out or airbrush giving it a more realistic appearance. 
Colours: the colours used are mainly red, oranges, blacks and whites. These colours compliment each other and add to over all aesthetics. Reds and oranges are both really eye catching so therefore attract the eyes of the target market.
