Language - The language on this is pretty much the same as the first contents page. The main image at the top is the band 'Escape The Fate' and the image represents the article that is going to be based on this band. The image has a yellow banner which shows what band it is and it also has the number '8' which shows that the article about 'Escape The Fate' is on page eight. There is also other images that are on the contents page which represents something in the magazine. There is an image with a band on it and it also has a yellow banner on it which makes the writing stand out. In the banner it says 'Posters'. This is showing that in the issue of Kerrang! you can get posters and the image is one of the posters that you will get. All of the subheading are in a bold yellow font which has a black background behind it. This makes the subheadings stand out against the background. There is a specific theme throughout the front cover which shows that all of the major headlines are in a yellow font with a black banner behind it and the rest of the writing is in a black font.
