This double page spread from an issue of Kerrang is predominantly image based, with the image on the left side of the page and the article on the right. The article is split into three columns, which is a convention of these sorts of music magazines. The header to the article is a quote from the article, which is also a convention of music magazines. The article has a white, grey and pink colour scheme. None of the colours really compliment each other but the pink helps text stand out. Usually the pink colour is used to highlight words of the reader's interest, including names of the musicians and interviewers, as well as the names of bands and albums.
The headers on the page are in bold capitals, helping distinguish them from the contents of the article itself, which is presented in lower case. The first letter of the first paragraph is larger than the rest. This is so that the reader knows where to start reading. The text in the header is white and in a black box while some of the smaller headers are in white boxes with black text. The black text in white boxes is reflective of the T-shirt of the person in the photograph.
In the top left of the left page is a black box with a red title reading 'News' with a subheading listing the web address for the magazine. There is also a border made up of glowing circles around the article which compliments the colour scheme somewhat as well as adding to the photograph, giving it a glossy studio style.
