The magazine’s double page spread shows the two bands on the cover: “Bullet for my Valentine” and “Cancer Bats”, so this reinforces the young, male audience this magazine is aimed at. The camera is zoomed in on their faces shows that they are having fun and are friendly people.
The lettering still continues to use the red from the cover and contents, which reinforces the theme of the magazine and it’s a masculine, angry colour which probably suits the music being advertised/promoted. The white background tires to reduce the violent aspect of the red lettering, which shows that the artists shown are not necessarily violent people, which they can often be associated as
The faces of the two artists show that they are having fun but trying to looks scary. The mise en scene of the image shows an axe, reinforcing violence and horror that is associated with the music, and the photo-shoot is meant to be associated to the film, The Shining. The reason for the axe prop is that the name of the band is called “Axewound” and it is meant to portray humour, and with the pull quote “Heeeere’s Axewound” which is also meant to be funny and clever.
