Brief Magazine Advert Analysis

Kings Of Leon Brief Magazine Analysis; 

The bands magazine advert has used the same main image as they have for their album cover to give a sense of synergy between the two products. This means that after an individual has seen the magazine advert, they are able to recognise the album cover and band easily.

This magazine advert also shows a number of songs that are included on the Kings of Leon album. This helps to attract customers and the bands general target audience who have listened and also like the songs, as they recognise the songs on the album which gives them an incentive to go out and buy the album.

The adverts shows the band's record label, advertising them to people who like this music. This would also promote the record label as because the band is successful, it gives the record label recognition as they are associated with the band.

The title of the album matches the colour scheme of the picture above it, helping to make the advert more appealing to the audience.

The band is well advertised as you can clearly see the name at the top of the page in white text on a black background.
