Textual Analysis of Kerrang! Front Cover

Below is my textual analysis of a Kerrang! magazine front cover. I made this to help me learn about the layout, text, image and advertising on the cover of this type of magazine, to inspire and give me insight into what professional music magazine covers include and feature.

This textual analysis research has taught me about what this type of magazine (rock genre) features on the front cover of their magazine. I like the way that the font and text types, the image and the edgy layout links with the genre and associates with the target audience. I will try and create this type of effect on my cover by taking a photograph which links with my genre of music, I could do this by changing the outfit of the artist. I can also use modern writing fonts to portray the style of magazine that I want to create.
