The mast head is at the top of the page in very large and bold font. On shops shelves only the top of the magazine is on display therefore, they want people to be able to identify the name of the magazine. The colour of the mast head is red which stands out from the greyish background and is easy to read. The mast head is slightly over the image. The mast head font is very unique and it will appeal to the reader because it almost looks like broken glass.
The front cover of the magazine consists of three main colours which are black, red and white. However, there is some yellow around the page. The red and the black really stand out on the page against the background. The yellow used adds another touch of colour to the front cover and highlights certain things.
The cover star on the issue is Mikey Chapman who is the lead singer of the rock band named Mallory Knox. He is very known and famous thefore, many people would buy the magazine because he is on the cover. The photo taken is a mid shot, Mikey Chapman is topless and he has water dripping off him. His hair is also wet. The image relates to one of the cover lines on the cover which is 'wash away your sins'. He looks like he has just come out of water and his facial expression is quite serious. His head is slightly down therefore, his eyes are looking up at the viewer. This looks intimidating and he looks confident. He is looking directly st the camera which gives a feel as if he was looking directly at you.
The main cover like is 'rock confessions' and underneath it there are different bands listed. The first band listed is Mallory Knox, the font used is bigger than the rest of the bands listed and this allows the reader to know that this band is the main topic of the issue, however, there are still other famous bands involved.
On the front cover there is also a puff which has 4 small images on it, it also says in bold writing '6 mega posters' this is a pull factor for the audience as they get free posters of the artists they are interested in so they are interested in so they are more likely buy it.
