Panzerfaust Records was a Minnesota-based white power record label founded in September 1998. Named after a German anti-tank weapon, the record label distributed the music of white power bands and organized concerts across the United States. The organization had ties to a number of other groups, including Hammerskin Nation (the "largest [US] skinhead group"), Volksfront and White Revolution. In response, schools were notified and in some districts, CDs were confiscated or voluntarily turned over by students. The anti-fascist record label Insurgence Records responded by offering a free downloadable compilation called Project Boneyard.
Panzerfaust Records shut down in early 2005 after the arrest of Pierpont for drug possession upon returning from a sex tourism trip to Thailand, and the emergence of evidence that Pierpont was of Hispanic descent and had dated transgender individuals and non-white women. The company was reorganized without Pierpont to become Free Your Mind Productions but disbanded for good shortly after.
As of January 27, 2005, the Panzerfaust website was no longer operating.
