Textual analysis 5


Bass is a type of guitar used in most Rock bands. It creates a lower sound within the music, which gives more of a difference in pitches. The title of this magazine is in bold letters behind the image of the man, this could be because Bass guitars are usually in the background on music which is linking in with the main topic of the magazine. The man on the front of the magazine has facial hair, this gives us the impression that he's not into looking formal, smart as he's comfortable how he is. The man is also wearing a checkered shirt which isn't full done up which could be showing how his character is quite laid back/relaxed. The main image of the man also shows two guitars, this could be to show how experienced he is, that he isn't new to music. The writing around him is done in quite light colours which is unusual against a white background as it doesn't stand out as much but the image stands out alot, this could be giving the impression that he's different and stands out from the crowd instead of being the same as everyone else. The fact he's wearing darker clothes could be relating to his music, that it's more dark and emotional compared to pop music which is more upbeat which may be reflected in the artists clothes.
