Magazine Covers

A feature that they all have in common, and what should be pretty standard for music magazines, is that they have the picture of a musician or band, or musicians etc... The titlsw are in big bold writing and stand out to the reader. They all tend to include technical shiz like, screamers and teazers.
On the covers of mix mag and Q have long shots showing the whole body of the artists involve, i feel this brings more energy to the magazine and portrays music far more acurately. Obviously a big and bold heading would be used to catch the reader and it would nearly be covered in screamers to catch the attention of the audience.
