Double page spread analysis

1) How does the choice of band featured in the article suggest who the target audience will be?
The article features an unsigned band called ‘new noise 2009’ this suggests that the target readership is aimed at a young audience and could possibly be interested up and coming artist who aren’t well known.









2) What type of language is used in the article? Give examples of words or phrases which are specific to the style of the magazine.
The interviewer uses a conversational tone when introducing ‘little boots’ and throughout the article, however the bands replies use colloquial, informal language that’s regularly used amongst the younger generation today.













3) How is colour used?
The use of colour is limited; the article itself is of a black text placed on a white background, however the drop cap is bright purple and the slug and logo/ end of article marker is a square divided into to four parts and uses the colours; blue, purple, pink and black. The slug (top right hand corner) and end of article marker (bottom right hand corner) can be found on every article within the ‘new noise’ section and promotes unsigned and up and coming artists. These particular logos act as anchors for a typical c-line eye flow commonly used in double paged spreads.
