This issue of "NME" shows a definite difference in colour scheme to other magazines like "Q" and "Kerrang". where as they tend to stick to around 3, this stretches it to 5, using Blue, Black, Yellow, White and Red. But these colours are used to split the page up in to different sections, the blue and white tending to be the pull quotes and subsidiary articles, while the Yellow is the Splash and the header bar, and then the Masthead of NME being the only text with red white and black used together, setting it apart from the other texts.
The Main Image is of the band, the Wombats who in the picture are set in different poses to help express their personalities to the readers, it gives of a playful attitude and very non serious. The band don't take themselves seriously and have playful and energetic personalities, which reflects onto their music.
The Header Bar contains information on the upcoming Glastonbury Festival, and acts that will be showcased at the event, including Kings Of Leon. Being quite big news for the music scene, the information is encased in black and yellow which draws the eyes every well.
Subsidiary images include that of Blur and The Cribs, both shown on the left hand side of the page as the cover again like many follows the grid format surrounding the main image.
The Masthead for the bran of magazine is "NME" and like that of "Q magazine" is places in the top left hand corner of the cover just under the header bar. And to set it aside from the other text it is shown in Red, making it instantly stand out and is one of the first things that we see. Telling the reader immediately the make of the magazine and so what to expect in the content.
