How is a new album marketed?

This is an example of an album release advertisement that was featured in Q magazine, a popular music magazine. The advertisement is for Noah & The Whales new album, Last Night on Earth.  The advertisement features the same image that is used on the front cover of the album so it is easily recognisable in stores. The album and band name is positioned at the top of the advert. A bold, black font has been used to make it eye catching. A quote from Q magazine has been used on the advertisement. This persuades the audience to purchase the album as it is rated highly by a reputable music magazine. The advert gives the basic details of when the album is going to be released. It also adds that the album features a popular single that is already in the charts. This information has been included so the audience can associate a catchy song with the album itself.
