There are a total of 67 pages in the whole NME magazine. These pages consist of a number of double page spreads. Including one on Florence and the Machine, a double page spread showing an interview with Wu Lyf and also another double page spread consisting of a gig guide giving dates for gigs which may be important for some. These double page spreads would interest readers because the niche market for NME is people who are fans of alternate rock music. The feature with Florence is also promoted on the front cover so this indicates that NME consider this the most important article in the magazine. This is because Florence and the Machine is a well known artist.
