This is the contents page from an issue of NME. It is quite different from most contents pages as it does not simply list the articles, but instead has a picture related to an artist or festival and an anchor and page reference. This appeals to the audience as it is quite alternative. The colours used are mainly black and white, this gives the page a newspaper feel and makes the magazine seem cool and sophisticated. There are lots of quotes that anchor the images and attempt to lure the reader in by giving them previews that make the articles sound exciting and dramatic-“I ended up crying in the first aid tent covered in blood”. The main image on the page is of a man, obviously performing, balancing on one leg and waving. This represents band members and friendly and energetic.
