The document discusses how the magazine attracts its target audience of alternative rock fans through various design features. It uses dark bold colors, edgy black and white images, and ripped/broken designs that are associated with the genre. Informal language and interviews appeal to younger readers, while classic bands featured attract older fans. Free tickets, posters, and event listings would draw in music enthusiasts. The overall aesthetic is unpolished and rebellious to represent the wild nature of alternative rock.Contents page analysis

This document analyzes and compares the content pages of two music magazines, Kerrang and Mixmag. It summarizes the key elements of each page, including the house style, imagery, design balance, target audience, and how each page applies the Guttenberg design principle. While Kerrang uses bold colors and a distinct style appealing to rock fans, Mixmag has a darker color scheme with a calmer feel more suited to its focus on house music.
