The German Panzer

German Heavy Metal Band

The German Panzer is a heavy metal supergroup formed in 2014, consisting of well-known figures from the German metal scene. The lineup includes vocalist and bassist Schmier, best known for his work with the thrash metal band Destruction; guitarist Herman Frank, who has played with bands like Accept and Victory; and drummer Stefan Schwarzmann, who has also been associated with Accept and other groups. The band's style is a blend of classic heavy metal and thrash, drawing on the members' backgrounds and influences. Their debut album, "Send Them All to Hell," was released in November 2014 and showcased their aggressive sound and musical prowess. The project was met with interest from fans of the members' main bands, as it allowed the artists to explore different facets of the metal genre outside their usual contexts.
