In the double page spread Kerrang do they have always got a
big picture of the band or artist they are talking about to let the
readers know instantly know who it is about.
Then in the actual article they have it laid out in
a sort of scruffy manner to keep it interesting
for the reader and they let it stick out of the

They also like to add a quote one of the
members have said so it gets readers
interested in the story before it’s even
started if they like how the quote sounds
