This students website has a professional finish and many pages to keep it's audience interested and entertained.
On the home page, there is an image of the group, with the lead singer in the centre and more in front of the others (in bands the singer is usually made to be seen as more important and gets more screen time than the others). It has the typical style of a website of having the menu of links across the top of the page and the name of the band in the corner. A feature that I quite liked of the website, is the music video he created playing automatically in the corner of the page - it pushes the audience to pay attention to it. However, what I would improve of this layout, is if everything was more centered instead of being a bit off to one side.
He included links to advertise to the audience to follow/subscribe to the group on social websites.
The home page also includes clips of information, to gain their audiences attention to read more.
The layout of the 'Releases' page is simple yet effective; The album covers are put in order of newest at the top, with the latest double the size filling up one row. To make this page a bit better for the audience, there should be links next to the album covers to the best shops that would sell them. Also it is a bit difficult to read the album title off the album cover, so there should be the name next to each of the images.
The 'Store' page is again simple and clear, and very easy to follow. You are able to click on the images to see details and then use the arrows to view the next product. There is also typical features of an online store, such as the 'Add to Cart button'.
The 'Gallery' link includes a bunch of images of the group, which have been colour manipulated. A decent camera had been used, as they are of a high quality, making the website seem a lot more professional. The images are also different sizes and overlap into each others row/column, giving it a slight mood board appearance.

The 'Contacts' page isn't as clear or professional as the rest of the website, but the image used portrays the band as one who cares about performance. The contacts aren't that clear as they don't stand out well against the image.
The overall colour scheme of the website is very dark, brown and grey: The basic background is black.
