4. Target Audience
The target audience for this copy and the magazine in itself
is a rather modern, contemporary target audience. This is
evident as Josh Homme (main image)has a pretty modern
hair style and whose music is innovative and unique and
distinguishable.
It advertises events such as music festivals that are
specifically targeted at the younger generation as they are
quite aggressive, so this is how for example the target
audience is targeted with high energy, high intensity events
that only apply to the younger more physically able
generation.
