Klaus Mitffoch was a Polish rock ensemble established in 1979 in Wrocław by Lech Janerka, Krzysztof Pociecha, and Kazimierz Sycz. The lineup soon expanded with the addition of Wiesław Mrozik and Marek Puchała, who replaced Sycz on drums. The group quickly amassed a notable underground fanbase. Their initial single, Ogniowe Strzelby/Śmielej, came out in 1983, followed by their debut album Klaus Mitffoch in 1984. This release received multiple accolades and is considered a pivotal work in the evolution of Polish rock music.
The band dissolved in 1984. Subsequently, Janerka embarked on an extensive solo career, with Pociecha contributing to two of his later albums. From 1986 to 1989, Mrozik and Puchała, joined by Paweł Chyliński, Jacek Fedorowicz, and Zbigniew Kapturski, performed under the name 'Klaus Mit Foch' and issued the album Mordoplan in 1988.
