Contents Page Analysis

This post is for the analysis for both 'Kerrang!' and 'NME' magazines contents pages. This is to help me to see what conventions would be best to use whilst creating the contents page for my magazine. Both magazines have very different views/ways of going about their contents page.

After analysing both magazines contents pages, I have found that Kerrang!'s contents page is a better and more suited style for the type of magazine I wish to create. However the NME one is a very interesting layout but is only possible to commit too due to the popularity of the magazine, as it is hard to follow, and for a new magazine that is just starting out this would probably not be the best way to attract an audience.
