Examples of magazine adverts

This magazine advert is for Delphic who are an alternative dance band form Greater Manchester. The advert is very eye catching as it uses an unusal picture which would attract the attention of many people. The colours used arent very bold, but does fit in with the message they are sending out to people about their music, which is they are unique. The style of writing fits ingood, and there is information on the advert about the band. Overall i think the advert matches well with the image the badnis trying to send in my opionion.



Midlake is an American rock band from Texas. The band first gained popularity in Europe by signing with Bella Union records and playing at festivals. This first thing i notice in this advert is the picture, which reminds me of monks. So i get the impression that the band and their songs may have some conection with religion. Also the fact that on the advert there is a passage conataining words of wisdom. Again the colours used arent very bold, and the text style is normal. Overall if i saw this poster i wouldnt be attacted to it because the message they are sending of being religious.

Massive attack are a collaborative British music production duo form Bristol.
This poster is very attractive, i was attracted to it the first time i saw it. The picture stands out, not only does it uses more colour than the other to posters above, but the picture is also unusal and imaginative even know it is a simple picture. The text sytle is also good because not only is it different but the fact that it looks like a eye test sheet that are used. I feel that this picture will attract many people from a range of different ages.
