Journalistic style
The journalistic style of these types of magazines is that they ussually use good english but then use a lot of slang as well. They tend to use slang in interviews because depending on who they are interviewing they may use a lot of slang but some of them use quite a lot of good english. In the magazine context itself it will use a blend of good english and slang. They use good english because the magazine needs to have structure and needs to make sense. They tend to use slang becasue the audience in this genre tends to be of the younger generation so using slang the audience can relate to it more easily and may prefer it with slang in.

You need to reload this image? Maybe you could analyse the style a bit more - do they use long or short paragraphs? What sort of language/ devices do they use in the headlines and in the text grabs? What sort of language do they use to talk about music? You could sum up at the end what you have learnt about music journalism and what you will try to reflect in your own piece.
