Kerrang Contents Page (Analysis)

This is the contents page of an article of Kerrang!.
Kerrang! Is of the Rock genre, it is noticeable that this magazine of a rock magazine because of the pictures used to illustrate it.



This magazine is aimed at a teenage to young adult population, and it is clear because it uses explicit words such as F**k. The lyrics used/ screamed are also explicit, so it is not appropriate for the younger generation.

The colours used for the text are highly contrasted so the writing stands out, The yellow writing has a black background, and the black writing has a yellow background. This is effective because it catches the eyes of the reader.

Dark and bold colours are symbolic/Iconographic of the rock genre and in all of the pictures darkness is used to emphasise the genre.
