Font ideas

I decided to look at some different fonts and decide on the one i would use for my mast head. On the first page i felt they were not appropriate and did not fit the rock music genre. I felt the word 'Smash' should look smashed and distorted and destryoyed because it is onematapiea of the word as breaking things is a stereotype of rock bands and should be ironic. This will also make it stand out. I used the website 'DaFont' to find fonts to fit this idea. The second page i found was a lot better and it was hard to decide on a final font.
I chose the final font which is called skratchpunk as it is quite suttle but effective at the same time because it is scratched and very distorted and it is what i had in mind for the font. This font tells the audience the genre of the magazine is rock. This is shown by the writing being big and bold which looks like the word is being shouted out, this is how rock music is accosiated as also. The font is not perfect and is scratched, this shows the magazine is raw and realistic and very down to earth, this makes it easy for the reader to relate to this magazine as it talks to them almost like a friend. This will attract the audience because it stands out. The font looks cracked and shows the reader the atricles inside vary in different bands, like a clash of rivals which excited the reader and makes them want t read on. It also shares simmilarities with Kerrang's font from being slightly destroyed however it is different at the same time which creates the magazines own individual identity.
