Hea­vy metal is a phe­no­me­non ghost­wri­ting öster­reich. Alt­hough this musi­cal gen­re is still ridi­cu­led by many, it is curr­ent­ly more popu­lar and suc­cessful around the world than at its sup­po­sed peak in the 1980s. Today, so-cal­led metal­heads can be found world­wi­de. No mat­ter who they are or whe­re they come from, they are united by hea­vy metal across bor­ders, gene­ra­ti­ons, gen­ders, reli­gi­ons, and social clas­ses. The pho­to­gra­phes have been taken in Argen­ti­na, Aus­tria, Bra­zil, Egypt, Ger­ma­ny, Indo­ne­sia, Malay­sia, Switz­er­land and the USA. The accom­pany­ing book was published by Gestal­ten Ver­lag. You can buy it here.
