Magazine Advert analysis 2

Enter Shikari - Tribalism

This magazine advert is for a compilation album by Enter Shikari. It has a simple layout with the title text over a grey background which features some text.

The signature Enter Shikari band motif is used, this will make it recognisable to people who are familiar with the band. Another motif used is the lion, which is made using different coloured text in the background, this works well as it is quiet subtle but almost a bit hard to notice.

The colour scheme is fairly dark except from the band moto 'We won't stay silent' which is in a light blue so that it stands out. The band name has some slight scratches on it for effect and to give the idea of the band being a bit 'rough' which is typical of their character and genre.

The layout is pretty simple, all text is centred and in a similar serif font.

Overall I think this magazine advert works well, it's quiet simple with only text featured. Although this would be different to an album cover as I think that should feature an image, in my opinion.
