This magazine is aimed at a more mature audience of about 25-43, its mode of address being formal but informative. it is a  well-known, quality music magazine promoting mostly the classic rock genre. The percentage of image to text is about one-to-three, and it is obvious that a main asset of the magazine is their long, in-depth articles and interviews. There is very little (if any) use if slang in the articles, which are written on a generally serious tone.
