This is Kerrang Magazine in 2009
Title: The title looks like shattered glass, which is supposed to represent the violence presented in rock music
The up-close picture is intimidating, but powerful and the eye contact engages the reader.
The bold lettering is like a shout, which fits in with the theme of rock.
The Layout of the cover is very clever, with all of the features down the left hand side, which focuses on Ozzy Osborne's face on the right, making it more poignant.
This is Kerrang magazine from 1993.
Although still good, it looks dated, but I imagine at the time it was on trend. The cover lines are too small to read, however, I Imagine that they are the same as they are now.
The layout looks very over crowded, with the different features interfering witht he main picture. There is too much going on.
The contrast between the two is subtle, yet vast and the way it has evolved show how it fits in with the times.
