I have been looking at all different kinds of popular music magazines such as Kerrang, Mojo and Q. I have found the colours to be quite neutral, with exceptions of red and yellow. These colours attract the readers attention. Plus, it is known that on most rock magazines the colour yellow is used regularly, so anybody interested in this kind of magazine may look sub-consciously because they know it is related to this kind of music. This has given me an idea about conventions used in music magazines, both in certain genres and across the board.
