Zaunpfahl is a German punk rock band known for its sharp and socially engaged lyrics, often exploring political themes and the everyday life struggles. They emerged from the punk scene in the late 1990s and early 2000s, with their music characterized by a balance of melody and aggression, tied together by a distinctly punk ethos. Their name translates to "fence post" in English, a moniker that is as grounded and unpretentious as their approach to music.

Over the years, Zaunpfahl has built a loyal following with their fervent live performances and a consistent output of records that reflect on societal issues and personal experiences. Albums such as "Musik" and "Leben ist" solidified their standing in the punk landscape, while songs like "Frauen" showcase their ability to address topics ranging from emotional depth to commentary on gender roles, all delivered with their signature energy. The release of "Halt die Uhren an" and their collaborative "Punkrock Party Pogo Split EP" further exemplify their dedication to the genre, confirming Zaunpfahl's place as a stalwart act in the German punk rock scene.
