Double page spread evaluation

Although Mixmag is talking about an important issue the layout of the article makes it see relaxed. The yellow is calming and the image of people on the bottom left corner is fun and inviting. There is a lot of colour on the page within the text and images to illustrate the text. In keeping with Mixmag's party theme they have approached an issue that is common of the party and club scene.

This double page spread is from Kerrang which can been seen as it is dark maybe gloomy or serious. The style of the band suggests rock or punk as can also be seen by the setting of the photo. The text of the article is in broken columns with bold green headers and simple white on grey text. The text details some facts about the bands members and some information on the albums with little images to illustrate.

This article is heavily dependant on text. The text is set in columns only broken to make a header for another subject. The headers are a bold black on yellow back ground so they stand out. It is quite typical of NME with the plain text made to look interesting with some colour and a few small images. In the bottom right corner there is information about the magazines website and video’s from the bandsd featured in this article.
