Art vs. Metal
Joachim Luetke, renowned artist born in Germany and living in Vienna, Austria has been raising both attention and awareness by creating innovative and eccentric artwork and design for over two decades. It´s his work that already justifies the acquisitions of a broad range of digital music carriers illustrated and designed by this outstanding artist. The content of this DVD-ROM features evidence of almost the entire oevre of Luetke´s unique style, starting with his first ever video-clip for an Austrian cult metal outfit of the late eighties, namely SPEED LIMIT. It may be a secret to many that Luetke crowned some of the most groundbreaking metal releases of the late eighties e.g. RAGE (»Perfect Man«), DESTRUCTION (»Release From Agony«) and MEKONG DELTA (»Dances Of Death«) with his unique creations. This DVD features 26 audio tracks as well as 9 video clips, amongst them precious jewels such as 'Nemesis' (ARCH ENEMY), 'Shut Your Mouth' (PAIN), 'My Minds Eye' (SIRENIA) or 'Shed' by MESHUGGAH. More highlights include two interactive books and lots of audiovisual gimmicks that are constantly demanding the listeners/viewers attention. Of course Luetke also permits some glimpse into the worlds of his ultimately expressive works for DIMMU BORGIR and SOPOR AETERNUS. To complete this unparalleled offer there´s loads of downloadable extras e.g. Wallpapers etc. A virtual book, worthy of praising Luetke´s oevre, inspiring and groundbreaking at the same time.
