this is a contents page from a normal 'NME' magazine (not special edition).
the contents page each week has the same format - "NME THIS WEEK" printed in bold at the top with text down either side and the bottom of the page and a photo in the middle. the date of the magazine is printed underneath the title. the text at the bottom is always a main story about a popular band - the top story of the magazine.
The use of sub-headings puts each piece of content into easier and clearer categories, making the magazine make sense and clearer.
The colours red, black and white feature all over the page, with a bit of bright yellow which stands out at the bottom. the use of use of ‘subscribe today’ is a sly way of easily persuading readers how they can get the magazine on a regular occasion and save money (which would be ideal for regular readers in today's economic climate).
The layout is also very consistent which gives the magazine a clear structure and easy for readers to know whereabouts things in the magazine are. The band index gives the reader and precise showing of what bands will be in the magazine. This may give the readers more purpose to buy the magazine as maybe there could be a feature on their favourite band.
