Task 4:
Here are some examples of the front cover of Kerrang! Magazines;
- All the Kerrang! Magazine covers follow the same layout and design.- The black Kerrang! Header and the main image that dominates the frame appears in
every magazine
- Having relatively the same layout just with different text and images gives themagazines a structure that people will know and recognise as Kerrang! Magazine
Here are some examples of Kerrang! Magazines contents pages:
- The colour scheme again is the same throughout these 3 different covers- Yellow and black are the colours that are used which is an effective contrast, however,
the yellow doesnt relate to the front cover image.
- Also one really effective thing about Kerrang! Magazine is the little pictures used tosummarise whats on each page rather than just having loads of texts.

2/6
Here are some examples of Kerrang! Magazines articles:
- The images here also do follow a relatively similar colour scheme with the red and black- Also in the majority of images the background is blank this is to keep the emphasis on
the band and the story in hand.
This particular image shows that
Kerrang! Magazine mainly is aimed
towards men. We can tell this from this
picture as it is just advertising male T-
Shirts.
The one thing I really like aboutKerrang! Magazine and I want to
feature in my magazine is the
wide range of knowledge they
have on the bands in this genre.
From this image from the
Kerrang! Website you can see
that Kerrang! Have information
on all these different bands and
can tell you when there next
album is out, what songs theysing etc. This level of knowledge
is something I want to portray in
my magazine.

One reason why this magazine is not suitable for my final magazine is because it only really targets men, even
though both genders buy the magazine the overall magazine is mainly targeted towards men. We can tell this
from the colour schemes used as theyre mainly dark and masculine colours and the covers dont generally
look feminine. Another reason why this might not be appropriate for my final magazine is because they only
really target male bands and dont have as many covers dedicated to female artists.
Even though I really like the design of the front cover of Kerrang! The colours used are very dark and almost
depressing whereas I would like my magazine to be more upbeat and bright. Because of this I will use brighter
colours which will make the magazine look more user friendly.
The overall design of the contents page I will use in my final magazine, this is because I like the use of small
pictures giving a summary of whats on the page rather than just rows and rows of words. I think it is effective
for the target audience as teenagers arent going to be wanted to read pages and pages of text.
Information about Kerrang!:
Circulation:
- 40,203 (Jan-Jun '12)
Readership:
- 387,000
Gender:
- 42.6% Women
- 57.4% men
- Even though the percentage difference between men and women isnt massive it still shows
that the majority of readership is done by men, hence why more of the magazine is targeted by
men
Class:
- 48.1% abc1
- This shows that the class range is middle class as the magazine is a weekly issue so you need
to have a good income to be able to afford it every week
Age:
- 15-24: 63.2%
- 25-34: 17.4%
- 35-44: 11.2%
- 45-54: 6.8%- 55-64: 1.4%
- This shows that the majority of the magazines readership is done by 15-24 year olds, because
Kerrang! Have this information they target this group more

Task 6:
- The musical genre that I want to feature in my magazine is indie/rock bands.Here is a list of bands that fit into this genre category;
You me at six
Genre:
- Mainly targets rock bands and is an integral part of the scene rather than just a
commentator.
Kerrang! Is expanding massively by having its own magazine, radio station, website, clothing range
this shows that he genre of music is very popular with young people today. I like the fact that themagazine has expanded into different areas. The musical genre that is being portrayed is shown in
each section. For example on the radio station the rock music genre is played.

All these bands produce the same type of rocky/indie music. Some of their songs are
rockier/heavier than others, however, they all contain drums, bass and guitar beats.
History of Rock Music:
- There are many different types of rock music and the definition is not quiteclear as different bands have their own take on it.
- Rock music is constantly re-invented itself since emergence 1940s.- The origin of rock music is traced back to the 1940s e.g. country, day and blues music- This type of music has now been aided by electric guitars and a steady
drum beat creating rock music- The aggressive attack of rock music suggested a sexual freedom that proved shocking
during that conservative age.- In the 60s the rolling stones expanded rocks scope by moving away from single

artists into musicians;
The Stones elevated rock to new cultural heights by embracing sex and youthful rebellion.
Reemergence:
- Rock re-emerged during the 1990s with the creation of Nirvana, which madealternative rock the dominant popular music.
- Hard rock/punk/grunge music started to appear and make its way into the rock world- Limp Bizkit melded hard rock and rap; something that had never been done before.
He created a new hybrid called rap-rock.
Evolution of rock music:
- As rock music became a more dominant form of music different bands made their own spin
on things and branched out rock music into a new sonic territory.
- For example Led Zeppelin took rock into a darker and heavier zone making the tone more
heavy metal. He helped kick start the genre known as heavy metal
- Another artist named Pink Floyd added psychedelic elements and complex arrangements
into rock music creating a concept of albums tied together by a single theme, something
that had never been done in rock music before. He gave birth to the spawning of the
progressive rock movement.
