Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	This is the logo for Kerrang!. It was first used from 1983 to 1996, and again since 2021. This is the 2021 variant.
Author or copyright owner	Steve "Krusher" Joule (original design) / Wasted Talent Ltd

Date of publication	November 2021
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Kerrang!
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	The image is used to identify Kerrang!, a notable product or service. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the product or service, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about that product or service, and illustrate branding associations of the product or service in a way that words alone could not convey.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	Because it is a non-free logo, there is almost certainly no free representation. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	Only used on this page
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	The logo is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.
Other information	Use of the logo in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy, logo guidelines, and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.
