In the top left third of the magazine, we have the Masthead and the date/price. This is conventional to a magazine, as the masthead is usually situated in the top left hand corner.
The main image supports the main coverline, as he is the lead singer of My Chemical Romance. The image uses high key lighting, and he is making eye contact with the reader. His face dominates the page in this midshot, which means the camera was on a slight angle when this picture was taken. He is glaring at the camera which ties in with the main coverline 'We loathe...'.
It is conventional to magazines to have the main image as a mid-shot, and for the main cover line to be supported by it.
Pug; 'Free Mick Rock Posters' is a pug because they are appealing to the reader.
The font is all the same style, and the majority is white. This shows how NME sticks to a house style.
The barcode, date and price are in the bottom left of the magazine, this is conventional to any magazine.

The main coverline is at the bottom of the magazine, which is unconventional to magazines. It uses different fotn sizes to capture the audiences attention in an unchronological order. 'My Chemical Romance' is in the largest font, as that is the initial draw to this issue, the smaller fonts give the finer details about the subject of the article inside.
Puffs; the first puff is the 'NME awards tour..' in the top right hand corner. This offers an exclusive you would only find in a music magazine. Another puff is the main coverline, as it offers a celeb article. The artists names on the right hand side is also a puff, as it is celeb related. The other cover line (Suede comeback interview) is also a puff, as it is a celeb exclusive. All the celebrities in music magazines are music artists, therefore when i make my own magazine, I should only include people related to the music industry.
