The front cover of the Kerrang magazine follows convention as Kurt is looking strait at the camera.
The mast head has a rough san-serif font and matches the overall theme of the magazine (which is rock). The colours of the font match the black and white theme of the main image, however the main image is colour pop as the eyes are blue whilst everything else is black / white. There is also a theme of pink as the banner background and the fonts are pink. The other articles around the front cover also match the music theme and are also rock artists.
Another way that the front cover follows convention is that it contains a barcode, date, and issue number. (April 4th 2015) ($6.95).
The main article is "Kurt Lives". This was most likely a popular topic at the time so having it on a music magazine attracts audience attention. The style also matches that of the rest of the front cover.
