Language- The masthead on this magazine is in a big black font which will initally stand out against the background. The skyline has a black background and it has white writing throughout it which stands out against the black. The main headline is in a bold white font which stands out against the image. Above the main headline there is writing which is also in a bright yellow font which stands out against the image and is the same underneath the main headline. The image is large and takes up the majority of the front cover. The band on the front of the magazine are wearing black so all of the writing will stand out against it. Underneath the main headlines are three images which is encouraging people to buy this magazine because there is a 'free poster special'. This will encourage people to buy this magazine because they are getting something for there money. At the bottom of the cover is a banner which includes names of the bands that are included in the magazine. The colour scheme throughout the magazine front cover is white, red, black and green.
Ideology-The theme of this magazine is to provide the people who read this magazine with all the gossip/information that is on the rock industry. The people that read this magazine will be expecting to find information/articles on their favourite artists or bands. The magazines main article will be about the band You Me At Six. This is shown because they are on the front of the magazine and the picture of the band stands out more than anything else on the front cover.
Institution- With this magazine been available all over they will distribute it in supermarkets or any shop that sell magazines. This is because people all over like rock music and this gives you alot of information on rock music/bands so it needs to be in a shop where everyone will have access to it.
Audience- The audience for this magazine will definitely be rock lovers. There isnt a specific age range for this magazine because any age range can listen to rock music. Even though there isnt a specific age range I would say that this magazine is ment more for teenagers/young adults. This is because it is just over £2 and teenagers/young adults will probably be able to afford this.
