Whilst researching existing band websites, I found that all of the band website followed a set of website conventions, annotated in the images below.
Above is the Kings Of Leon website. A image of the band has been manipulated using a photo editing software to make the band members stand out against the background by adding shadows behind each member. The lead is singer of the band can clearly be identified as his stance makes him stand out against the rest of the group. The website contains both internal and external links, internal links being the navigation bar at the top and external links being the small shop section at the top of the page allowing the users to quickly and easily purchase songs. The band name has dominant and powerful position on the page, making it clear to the user which website they are visiting.
Above is the arctic monkeys website showing similar features to those seen on the Kings Of Leon website. I like the way the band image, band name and buttons link together to create one heading. The external link on this website takes the user to the bands YouTube page, increasing the interaction that the user has with both the site and band. The news appears on the home page of this website, making it a lot easier for the fans to find out what is happening with the band.
