Panzer Squad

**Panzer Squad** is a German thrash metal band that burst onto the scene in the early 2000s with a sound as unrelenting as their name suggests. Hailing from Germany, the group channels the raw energy of old-school thrash, blending razor-sharp riffs, breakneck tempos, and gritty vocals. Their self-titled debut album, *Panzer Squad* (2004), set the tone with its aggressive, war-themed lyrics and mosh-ready anthems, while follow-ups like *Ruins* (2010) and *Coming to Your Town* (2007) doubled down on their reputation for high-octane live shows and unapologetic, headbanging chaos. Known for touring relentlessly across Europe, Panzer Squad has carved out a loyal fanbase among metal purists who crave the kind of fist-pumping, beer-soaked energy that defined the genre’s golden era.
