Magazine Articles, Rock Related

Here I have some existing magazine articles from the bands we are looking into in order to relate to the genre of rock:

Is similar and can be related to the album as it has the theme of the galaxy and planets as well as the font of "Red Hot Chilli Peppers" and its symbol are built up of stars to relate with surroundings.

The album is at the bottom, people know what they have to buy

Reviews/Quotes, getting opinions and advertsing through word of mouth as it is reliable especially hearing from well known established company reviewers for example.

"THE NO.1 ALBUM" subheading, capital letters, displayed in a bigger font and different colour "Yellow" Trying to stand out and sell itself to the audience to show its a good album.

It also includes the contents "Available on 2 X CD", "New Tracks" trying to persuade the audience to buy it with all the extra features, worth the money?
Same style of their logo and pictures of the members of the band, telling audiences its them

"The new Album" and "In stores now" big, capital letters, stand out

Rusty them, run down, getting old ties in with their logo and some of their music videos such as "How I remind you"

Has the stores below where the album is available from audiences know where they can buy it.

More than one version or copy having a standard CD and a limited edition digipack including more as well as aiming for their active/hard care fans and audiences.

Having new and exclusive content, selling itself, trying to persuade the audience to buy it with all the extra features, worth the money?

Link to their website, audiences can check out their other products
Green day logo big, stands out on the magazine

Image of Billy Joe Armstrong the lead singer and guitarist of the band, main character, most recognizable to audiences who may not be fully aware of the band but do listen to them perhaps.

At the bottom the page is divided by a line, this is done as green day are trying to sell two products "The new single" and "The album"

Image of the cover of their singles and album, audiences know what they have to buy.

"THE NO.1 SELLING ALBUM" Trying to stand out and sell itself to the audience to show its a good album.

List of some of their hits in the album such as American idiot and Wake me up when September ends  which is also the one of the heading under their logo name, trying to relate to audiences the tracks they may know as they are the most popular perhaps, trying to sell themselves

Exclusive content: free DVD including the making of and other videos, incentive to get the album as well as selling themselves.

Colours also match from the album by having both red and white text and using a black background at the bottom section.

Links to their connected websites, audiences can check out their other products.

In conlusion we will take similar elements of this as well as addressing and putting in our own content such as the stores we will market our product for example through HMV, ITunes, Amazon as well as our album cover picture, band members, headings and logos and many more. We will also take into consideration the layout of where we display the content we intend include as everything needs to fit into place through organising it into sections so that the reader can pick up the information contained.
