The model, Dave Grohl is wearing clothes that match the colour scheme which i think makes the front cover look more organised and i like the idea of the models clothes matching the colours of the text on the front.
I like the fonts on the cover as they vary and stand out against the background although overall the font use does make this particular front cover look less professional.
The masthead is the first thing that drew my attention on the cover, it is very clear and a good size. It is in the usual place at the top which is good as it leaves a lot of space for front cover stories ect. Unlike other front covers, the shot on this cover is behind and not covering the masthead. In my opinion it looks better if the shot is behind the masthead as i don't like the idea of covering half the masthead.
The only negative on this front cover in my opinion is the small writing in the bottom left hand corner and how it doesn't look as professional as other front covers and this may deter people from buying it when they see it on the shelf.
Overall i think this magazine cover suits the genre and appeals to the correct target audience.
