Font/Title research and ideas

The genre I have chosen is alternative rock. This is because of my interest in this genre and knowledge of the current state of the industry. Although there are many magazines currently on the market that are following this genre, I intend to make mine unique however, still following the general conventions of the typical magazine whilst avoiding to conform to their house styles.
This is a possible font choice for the masthead of the magazine cover. I somewhat like this as it has more of a grittier look whilst remaining bold and grabbing the attention of the consumer. This font also matches the genre well as it has similarities to existing products I previously analysed such as Kerrang!

Other fonts such as the ones above are also possibilities due to the bold personality of the fonts aswell as the individual differences, such as on Blacklisted.

Initial Title Ideas
  •        Riffed
  •        Thrash
  •        Alt Rock
  •        Amped
  •        Soundage


These are potential titles/ mastheads for my magazine. Many are based off of puns of music/ instruments such as “Riffed” which plays on the riff/ solo when playing the guitar.    




Ø        The Unknown font looks the best with the                chosen title due to the likeliness to the chosen          genre.
