colours: the three main colours used are white black and green. these colours are not very exiting but the way they use the green and black in the large quote makes it seem 'twisted' and this keeps in theme with the 'emo and rock' of Kerrang.

design: the design of this double page spread is that the image is placed on the right hand side when all other double page spread analysis shows that it is more traditional for it to be on the right hand side, i believe the reason for this is because it is the rebellious theme of the rock genre. the image is placed on a white background to make it stand out. on the right hand page the large quote takes up half of the page and the article starts halfway down the page. i believe the reason for this is because the first thing the audience will read is the quote and this will attract them to read the rest of the article.

image: there is only one image and it is a mid-shot of the my chemical romance lead singer. the seriousness of the face expression is traditional theme of the rock theme, this will also attract readers to read the article because it shows that this has been a serious interview with personal issues being brought up. he is pressed up on a white background which also makes him stand out.

words and language: there is one very large quote that is also acting as a title to the double page spread it is very long and a lot longer than a usual title. it comes across boring with the colours but the green tries to bring out certain words to make it more interesting.

overall impression: i believe that this double page spread is very boring and dull with the title being long and it doesn't give the double page spread as much interest as other double page spreads that i have read, the colour i believe also lets it down because that is also very dull. altogether i do not like this because it is a very dull double page spread with a dull image, dull colors and dull language.
