This is a double page spread in the magazine NME. They have used a bright blue colour to make the page eye catching. They have used this on the "quotes" that are involved in the article and the title of it. The title "the teenagers", is band name but also has the personal effect to the readers because most of them themselves are teenagers. The main picture of this double page connects to the subject of the article. The photo is of the band and the article is all about them. This photo dominates the left hand page but they have incorprited text boxes ontop of the photo so that its not just a boring photo but also people, when looking at the photo, also notice the text aswell. The colours in the photo are dull compared to the bright blue, however this is a good contrast because it makes things not linked together and become unclear to read. There are also three other smaller photos on the opposite side of the double page of the main photo. This is a good thing because it shows that the other photos are completly different and nothing to do with the band "The teengers". Next to each smaller photo is a text box about the band with is featured in the picture. One of the photos and band text is linked into a famous singer "alex turner" of the artic monkeys and the last shadow puppets (bands). The readers will be interesting to read this as they aspire to be like that famous person. It says that "the rascals" are Turner's favourite band at that moment in time, therefore the readers want to listen to this band to be like there "role model". The main article has one of the bright blue boxed writting stating a quote from one member of "the teenagers" which says "of course we are a sexual band, we are the teengers and thats all they think about". This can be personal to the readers as again, some are between the ages of 15-18 and can link into the band and being a teenager. The very first letter of the article "T" is in bold to show that it is the start of the article and starts the whole thing off very powerfully. On the left hand side of the double page in big bold letters it says "Everybodys talking about...". Now this grabs the readers eye because they obviously want to know whats being talked about and want to look "cool".
