The main text on the splash pages are the images down both the left side and the right side. The image on the right is the largest, and is more dramatic as he is the lead singer of the band. He is wearing white as this conotes innocent which is unstereotypical of a rock band. His shirt is baggy which conotes that he is relaxed and laid back. His eyeliner conotes mysteriousness and that he has a dark side which the reader would be eager to learn more about. However the other two band members on the left are in black leather jackets, which is conoted as very tough. The man in the bottom left is wearing a smart shirt and tie, this balances out the baggy shirt that the lead singer is wearing, and appeals to more than one of their target audience. It is red which conotes danger and excitement which is what the band offer. Both the pictures on the left are juxtapostioned next to each other as they are the least important members of the band, and this is why they are not featured on the front page as not many people would recognise them. The writing is small and simple, so as not to confuse the reader as it is given in a simple, staright forward form. This could make the reader loose interest and so key, important words are in larger, more bold fonts such as 'THEY SAY' and 'POSSESSING SUCH'. The main quote from the lead singer is featured accross the bottom of the picture of him, it is in white writing, highlighted in black so as to make it stand out from the other texts because it is giving any aspiring musicians encouragement and advice and also it shows his rebelious side which is what stereotypically rock muscians have.
