Typography

Typography is one of the most important things to consider when creating a music magazine. The typography of the title and the font of the headlines reflects the style of music it is representing and is one of the main elements that attracts the readers' attention.

The front used for Kerrang! magazine is the main attraction for much of their target audience. As well as being associate with the rock/punk musicn genre, the typography used reflects the rebellion and the violence behind the genre with a graffiti style font and smashed glass effect.

The typography the NME magazine uses is bold capital letters. The font does not get lost within the front page as it stands out from the images. Using a bright colour and simple font would attract the students that the magazine is aimed at.
