Front Cover Analysis

Kerrang Magazine Front Cover
KERRANG, is a UK-based Music Magazine devoted to rock music. It was first published on 6th June 1981 by Bauer Media Group. It was named after the onomatopoeic word that derives from the sound made when playing a power chord on an electric guitar. In the 2000's it became the best-selling British music newspaper.
This is the front cover to KERRANG Magazine, with Paramore Hayley Willaims. Hayley is looking directly at the camera to interact with the audience. They have stuck to a simple colour scheme with orange, red, black and white. The orange matches Hayley's hair and fits in with her top as well. They've combined Hayleys punching action with showing her 'exclusive interview', this gives a dramtic effect and makes the writing stand out more to show the audience. The font is bold so its easy to read and to grab the auidences attention.
