The header of the NME contents page features the NME logo, in a similar position to how it is found on the front cover. The header says "This Week" as opposed to contents, which is a slight variation. Underneath we can see in small print the date of release for the magazine. Throughout the whole page the colours white, red and black remain consistent, as does the bold sans serif font.
A less common feature is used down the right hand side, as a long list of all the different bands featured in the magazine tells the reader where they can be found. This shows the diversity of the magazine and variation in genres featured.
The image is of both Gallagher brothers from Oasis playing. We witness a change in font for the phrase "the moment that", this is the only noticeable font change on the page and draws extra attention to it. The central feature to the contents page is almost a mini-article on Oasis' return which is short and easy to read but gives a feel of more to come. It shows a covering of current affairs in the music world.
Underneath the centrepiece is a black box with text in saying "Subscribe Today Save 33%" which is in yellow text, the only variation from the colour scheme of the page, drawing the reader's attention to it. This is a kind of plug to the reader, offering them a good deal when they look at the contents, drawing them in to buying the magazine.
Down the right hand side is a column giving direction to all the various features. The features are split into categories, like news and reviews, and shows the magazine gives a well-rounded, diverse view on music. Next to the appropriate feature is a red arrow drawing attention to stories and articles mentioned on the cover, giving the reader an easy time finding the articles.
