Although the font size differs, the font remains the same throughout the contents page in order for the audience to recognise this as a symbol of the magazine. The colours red and black are also iconic on the contents page as a representation of the magazine. The clear structure is easy to follow for the reader as it contains subheadings such as 'News', 'Radar' and 'Live' therefore it is easy to find certain pages.
Main images of popular rock band 'Oasis' make the audience want to read on and find out more about their favourite artists. Also due to having such a successful rock band on the contents page, it will heighten the status of this magazine.
