This double page spread is mainly focused on a article about a band called 'The Teenagers', which is a band that fits in with part of the target audience, teens. The image of them is all about them looking cool and giving off the idea they live a lifestyle that the readers will be able to connect with. By this, one of the things I am referring to is their pose. They look very laid back and relaxed and have a look associated to many teenagers, the look of being 'past caring'.
Another thing that caught my attention is the pictures in the background, they are of woman posing naked - Due to the audience that would read this magazine (Predominately male) it should help attract that audience.
Looking at the colour scheme, it is primarily Blue, white and black. Which helps make the title stand out, the pull quote and the information box about the band. From the layout, it is hard to see if there is any sort of plan to it but it could be seen as using a 3 column plan with the image, article and side box. Also along with the main image and band, there is subheadings of other bands that are included within the magazine - For example The rascals or Crystal castles will be featured. These are good examples of upbeat indie bands, which in all honesty is the majority of music in the NME.
