The tittle of the article is called 'THE TEENAGERS' and so teenagers aged 16-25 are going to be interested in the magazine and article this is because the article will not appeal to people who are in their thirties, people in their thirties and fourties will not recognise and will not be interested in the article as well.

There are various pictures on the article and the main picture is of a band with three members and the setting of the picture is in a typical teenager's bedroom because of the pictures and the style as well. The band are wearing clothes that teenagers would wear because they are cool and stylish and many adults do not tend to wear these kind of clothes. For example the band are wearing skinny jeans and leather jackets which are in style and considered 'cool' for many teenagers. The magazine and the band is of pop/rock genre and the clothes link in with that as well, because the clothes are current and so is the music. The magazine uses alliteration for example 'crystal castles' and this makes the article sound more interesting. The article also uses some humor to keep the reader entertained and interested in the magazine article, for example 'young, dumb and full of....filthytunes'. This is a subheading for a paragraph and when the reader reads the subheading they will want to read the rest of the article and paragraph as well. The tone of the magazine is humorous and it is also friendly to the reader but at times it can mock the bands and singers, and this links in with the pop/rock genre because it reflects the attitude of the teenagers who read the magazine. The magazine article uses colloquial language and standard english because the magazine is for teenagers and younger adults so it has to use language that they will understand so they will want to read and buy the magazine again.
