The third double page spread is one of 'Echo and the Bunnymen'. This double page spread features a main image of one band member covering one side of the spread and text on the other. However, overlapping the text are also other images; one of the band as a whole and the other of the single members.
The main image is a medium close, showing the facial features clearly but also a microphone, linking with what part the member shown plays in the band and also showing music/band iconography. The pose he (Ian McCulloch) is pulling looks quite spacey which links with the title of the article and also the song the article is focusing, The Killing Moon. These relate to each other due to the fact that the moon is in space and also quite mesmirising, which links with the pose that Ian is pulling as he not only looks spacey but also as though he is mesmirised by something.
The colour scheme running through the double page spread is a gold and black theme connoting wealth and class. The title of the article is also written in a font that is used when a band gets a gold disk of their song. This links with the caption of the title, "Oh, and it's also 'the greatest song ever written'" due to the fact that if the song was the best it would have been successful and therefore, the band will have recieved a gold disk. The main image also has gold undertones as it is shot in a sepia effect therefore complimenting the gold and black theme of the double page spread. The use of the 'Oh,' in the caption makes it feel as though it is an underthought due to the fact that it is so obivous that 'The Killing Moon' is 'the greatest song ever written' that it was almost not mentioned because everyone already knows.
On the far left of the page is a single shot of 'the key players' who contributing to making 'The Killing Moon' video and are also the peopl to speak in the interview. These include the vocalist, the bassist, the guitarist and the video director. This shows each individual clearly whereas in the group shot, featured in the middle of the text, the band memebers are not as clear to make out.
As the interview is centred around the making of the video it provides the audience with a behind the scenes view, making it more interesting and making the audience feel special.
