The audience for Spin are young as the magazine doesn't only focus on music but also includes film and art. The audience are also music enthuasiasts who are into ska, pop R&B, rock, hip hop, and rap. The ideology of Spin shows that the youth culture is important. A piece of media language that shows this is, the subtheading, 'Black Kids - the young and the restless'.
Both main images have the band and the artist looking directly into the camera in front of a plain background so that they look confident. They're both doing something with their hands which makes it look like they're reaching out to the audience which represents them as artists who can relate to the audience.
On both front covers the backgrounds are plain and either white or black which makes the name of the magazine, 'Spin', stand out in red. Also the background doesn't draw the readers eye from the main image. Spin also has a website online but doesn't have a radio station or a channel on TV.
