Panzerfaust (German: “Tank Fist”, an anti-tank weapon) is a black metal band formed in 2005 in Toronto, Canada. Their subject matter deals primarily with discomforting subjects in history through a philosophical lense. These ideas are mirrored in uniquely abrasive and complex musical compositions. The resulting synthesis could aptly be described as the soundtrack to “a boot stamping on a human face forever.”

Touring with the likes of MARDUK, BELPHEGOR, UADA and VITAL REMAINS, Panzerfaust has performed the North American continent extensively. Making their European debut in 2016 at Inferno Festival in Norway, their performance was described as having "scared the living shit out of me... [the audience] was left feeling completely violated." (Metalasfuck.com, 2016) In 2018, Panzerfaust opened for SLAYER on their final farewell tour. Additionally, Panzerfaust performed alongside DIMMU BORGIR for one of their exclusive North American dates.

After nearly being killed in a car accident in the Canadian mountains while touring with BELPHEGOR & CRYPTOPSY in winter 2017, Panzerfaust had since become galvanized to create their most ambitious release to date; a spiritual successor to the the widely acclaimed LP 'The Lucifer Principle'; a concept album based on the Howard Bloom novel of the same name which "explores the intricate relationships among genetics, human behavior, and culture" and argues that "evil is a by-product of nature's strategies for creation and that it is woven into our most basic biological fabric." This colossal length descendent to 'The Lucifer Principle' is set to begin its release in Spring 2019.
