The masthead of this magazine is in bold, 3D writing that is sans serif to show the bold strength of the people who read the magazine, it is aimed more towards men due to it being large and dragging in mens attention from the manliness.

The blue, red and yellow colours on this magazine are more male-orientated colours, the blue signifies the gender of male, the red would signify blood or honour, the yellow would signify royalty, all of these are stereotypically values that are important to men.

The layout of this magazine is very cramped but does not go over the star's face, but filling up every other space available. It has high production value due to it being able to advertise and be payed by a lot of artists, making it cheaper to produce and being able to reach more people.

The main image is a medium shot to be able to fit all of the details and writing of the magazine on to the cover, but to still be able to recognise Dave Grohl from a distance. Dave Grohl has a serious facial expression, suggesting the topic about him in this magazine is also a serious topic. There is very standard lighting that brightens up his face and his details. He is wearing casual clothing, suggesting that he is not in the magazine for a special reason. There is also the minor image of the CD case, showing the community of the songs on the CD.

Dave Grohl's cover lines suggests that he is talking about a very emotional and serious topic, being backed up by the last point I made.
