Clash Magazine Analysis!

There is no main genre type of Clash magazine, they cover a wide range of music and an example of this is on the front cover who is JAY-Z who is a hip-hop, rap singer and on the latest front cover there is a new up and coming artist who is an electric style artist. The target audience of this magazine is anyone who is interested in music as there is no set genre, it particularly depends on who is included in the magazine, this will be a factor so the potential audience as they will only buy something if they personally, will find it interesting. I also feel that Clash magazine has an appeal to both the male and female genders, this is because the appeal really depends on the artist that will be included in the magazine. The magazine is a monthly magazine and has been around since 2004. It costs around £3.80.

The design of this magazine cover is simple and effective, this is because it is just an image of an artist and he is staring at the camera so it looks like he is addressing the audience directly and this will draw the audience in as it will make them feel like they are being addressed by him. The name of the artist and the reason he is on the front cover is at the bottom and they are both aligned with the image of the artist.
