Vorkriegsjugend (German pronunciation: [ˈfoːɐ̯kʁiːksjuːɡənt]) were a very influential cult hardcore punk band from Germany. The band only existed for 4 years (1982-85). However, they are considered to be one of the most notable and influential German bands of the period.

While active they released a double 7" and an LP. Their discography is currently available on CD from Weird System Records.

The band, with only the drummer as a band member of the original line-up, reformed in 1998 and released an EP called 'Widerstand dem Teutonenland'. They split up for good in 1999.

The LP is nowadays a rarity and can be sold for more than 50 dollars. The 7" is even more rare. There was a official re-release as 12inch by New Face Records from Brasil in 1988.The original 7 Inch has no second pressing and can be sold for more than 150 dollars which makes it one of the most expensive German punk records in history.
