Kerrang has carried their masthead from the front cover to the title of the content page. This gets the magazine more promotional marketing to their audience, as their masthead is well known so if people see it. They know they are reading the correct magazine; giving the audience awareness and customer loyalty to the magazine.

A main image has been added to emphasise the fact that the magazine is full on, exciting and concentrates on live gigs. This is shown as the guy is all sweaty and there is also an intense atmosphere. As well the guy in the image is famous and when some people see the image they recognise him, and know that he is in a band that put on shows for their fans, therefore this backs up that the magazine, that one of the important factor is live gig shows reviews.

Smaller images have been included so the reader gets more of a quick insight to what is in the magazine. By doing this, its gets the audience to appeal more to the audience as they can see whether they will like what is the magazine. The images are of the double page spreads, which feature the major artist which is in the magazine.

The content page matches the house style in many ways;

Firstly, the colours used within the magazine are used thoroughly, such as blue, yellow and black. Theses colours are a big part of the house style as they have been used quite often. They are outstanding, vibrance and draw the audience as they are bright and neon.

Secondly, the font which has been used on the front cover is also used on the content page, therefore showing that the magazine has a house style. This is effective as the bold writing, attracts the reader to the section of what they are interested in, for example, on the list of page numbers there are subheading ranking the page numbers in to topics such as gig guide. This writing is bold therefore the reader can get quickly to the part of the magazine they want.

Thirdly, in this magazine shape has been used to exaggerate certain parts of the magazine, as the font colour contrast on the colour of the shape. This appeal to the audience as it makes the text outstanding and is also eye catching as it draws them in the look at the page numbers so they can read the articles inside.

Page numbers are inserted on the content page so that the audience knows what is contained within the magazine and to know where the articles with what they want to read has been inserted within the magazine. This gets the audience to read more of what is in the magazine and get attracted to more of what to read.

A personal message to the audience has been inserted on the content page. This makes the audience feel closer and like a loyal friend to the magazine company. This has also been exaggerated as the editor has also included a photo of him to the audience. This is a good way for the magazine to reel in customers to buy the magazine every month. This is also effective to persuade the customers to buy the magazine every week as next to this; there is a section where the magazine promotes the readers to buy a subscription.
