Feuerschwanz is a German medieval folk rock band known for their unique blend of humor, fantasy themes, and energetic performances. Formed in 2004, the band has developed a devoted fanbase through their engaging music that combines historical elements with modern rock and tongue-in-cheek lyricism. Feuerschwanz often dresses in medieval costumes and incorporates traditional instruments, such as the bagpipes, hurdy-gurdy, and flute, alongside electric guitars and drums, creating a distinct sound that has come to define their brand of "mittelalter rock" or medieval rock.

Over the years, Feuerschwanz has crafted a discography that showcases their talent for catchy melodies and theatrical storytelling. Their recent releases, such as the fiery "Fegefeuer" and the heroic "SGFRD Dragonslayer," continue to cement their standing in the folk rock scene. Their creative takes on popular covers, like "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" by ABBA and "Blinding Lights" by The Weeknd, demonstrate their ability to infuse modern hits with their signature medieval rock flair. With "Memento Mori" and "Die letzte Schlacht," Feuerschwanz reaffirms their skill in crafting epic and anthemic tracks that resonate with their audience, while the live recording "Untot im Drachenboot (Live In Wacken 2022)" captures the raw energy and connection with fans that have become synonymous with their live performances.
