Generic conventions - Front cover

Masthead- The masthead of the magazine cover is "NME!" Is on a white banner which makes the red and the black text stand out which contrast with the dark black clothing. The masthead is behind the image placed on the top left in a black bold title which is eye catching. Its important that its stands out to show the company logo so it can compete with other magazines in the industry. It also shows the significance of the magazine by using bold texts.


The magazine mentions other artist/musicians to attempt to sell the magazine to a broader audience. They have used a great photograph on the front cover because it is seen as the most section of the magazine. The extra information written on the side of this magazine shows what's new and exciting to read about also it is included to make the audience buy this particular magazine. The bright red is used to attract the target audience of teenagers to "NME".


Language
The language used  is not very formal to attract to the younger generation. I think it emphasises  to more males than females because its set in bold , black and red, also the male band "Kasabian".
