2. ‘Rock sounds’ magazine is published once
a month by Editions Freeway since 1999.
However it was bought out by its director
Patrick Napier in 2004.
This is its 183rd issue – and its most recent.
3. Rock sound magazine is a magazine that is
primarily based on the music genres Rock
and punk rock. It focuses on bands/ artists
who have yet to be discovered and
includes a CD with featured music from
the artists that they are trying to promote
4. "For those who like their music loud, extreme
and non-conformist"
The audience for this magazine is for
people over the age of 16, this is because
the music genre is not very suitable for
younger ages. There is a lot of punk and
hard rock being advertised that parents of
younger children would not be happy with
them listening to or learning about via
this magazine.
5. The main image on the front cover is of
the band ‘ you me at six’ it is of all of the
band members looking into the camera.
The lead singer is standing closest to the
camera so is presented as larger ( ie
representing that he is more important )
than the rest of the band members. The
convention of the photograph is a mid
shot.
They are all wearing black/ dark colours
that represents seriousness however are
all smiling, this shows that they are
enjoying themselves on the magazine
presenting themselves as a group.

popular.

rage of music genres in this magazine. The
age range for this magazine would be 1522 this is because the type of music in it is

generations.
10. There are more than one main image on

All of the images of the artists have little
to none back ground making them stand
out more and make them look more
important/ superior.
