Deconstruction of a contents page

This is a deconstruction of a music magazine contents page. I have been looking at layouts and conventions of contents pages in order to help me in understanding what my contents should look like. 

Gathering from the images, colours and font styles this contents page is clearly for a rock music magazine. It consists of images from either live gigs, or bands and 4 out of the 6 images used contains a drum kit in it. The colours used are mainly red, white and black, stating that this magazine is very bold and masculine. The colour  red is used to make things such as the mast head stand out, whereas black is used mainly for the font and some images to portray a rock theme. The layout is very simple and neat compared to a lot of other rock music magazine, all the images are placed with numbers to direct the reader to the page of that feature. This contents page has one very large image to signify that it is the main article, and all the other images are smaller.
