Tanzwut is a German industrial and medieval rock band comprised of members from the folk band Corvus Corax. Their name directly translates to "dance rage", which differs from the intended "fury dance". Tanzwut are known for their heavy use of bagpipes, an unusual instrument for a metal band. The group has achieved international success, filling concert halls as far away from their home country as Mexico.

Their first album was produced by Jon Caffery, producer of fellow Germans Die Toten Hosen.

Tanzwut's live performances have a medieval theme, expressed through their stages, costumes and choreography.
