This is the NME double page spread which I found online which I liked the look of as again the dominance is a powerful image of Oasis overshadowing a large text delving into the future of the band. What I like about the spread is the large photo using one whole page layered with a quote from the band, something that fans and the readership can automatically take from the magazine before even reading the larger in depth look at the band. I like the splashes of colour which suggest a more youthful audience as well as the audience and myself included being able to identify the double page spread as NMEs' style. There is also a link to the website highlighting the technological convergence which the brand NME offers again using the house style and masthead font, reflecting why my analysis of various Logos and brands are so important. I like how the double page spread doesn't appear 'boring' for what is likely to be a youthful teenager filled readership. Too many younger readers opt out of larger texts and to see the NME dropping hints of colour and another image once again show that NME have captured their audience to a tee.
The overall image of the magazine appears smart and the subheading isn't brief like you would see in  a paper, it carries some detail showing the magazine in a more positive light in that these articles to in fact carry a large amount of information for the reader.
