The colour scheme from the Paramore cover is again consistent with this edition of ‘Kerrang!’ On this cover the band demand even more of a presence on the cover as all 4 of the band members are covering the mast head again implying that the magazine is so prestigious the ‘broken glass’ effect is all you need to recognise the brand. Again the target audience are the same being both male and female teens. The band’s name is bold and in bright writing which will attract the target audience as the norm for rock magazines are dark colours. It will also attract a wider audience as even with people passing by, your eyes are attracted to the ‘ALL TIME LOW’ straight away, other viewers that may not be Kerrang!’ readers will become interested if they are fans of All Time Low. The cover is quite busy compared to the other Kerrang one, for example there are a lot of cover stories in order to attract their target audience and make them feel that by buying this magazine will be worth their while.
From this analysis I will be having my bands heads over the masthead to create the prestigious feel for my magazine. The band’s name will be in a bold bright colour placed in the centre of the magazine and have the background black which is the norm for magazines in this genre. I also want to make sure that I keep my magazine appropriate for males and females, and not sway to one or the other.
