Front cover analysis
The front cover of the Drummer magazine effectively targets rock music fans. The masthead clearly communicates the rock genre focus. The main image of Tommy Lee, a well-known rock artist, will attract his many fans. Sublines and cover lines throughout mention numerous artists' names to appeal to wider audiences. Additional elements like the color scheme, buzzwords, and subsidiary drum imagery also reinforce the rock theme and position the magazine as relevant to fans' interests.
