Mad Max Legacy (Previously Mad Max) is a German hard rock band from Münster. In 1988, the band consisted of Michael Voss (vocals), Jürgen Breforth (guitars), Roland Bergmann and Axel Kruse (drums). Mad Max's self-titled release was in 1982. They faded away in 1989. Voss and Breforth reunited and put out a comeback album in 1999. At the beginning of 2015, bassist Roland Bergmann left Mad Max, leaving Breforth as the only original member of the band.

The band announced in January 2021 via their official site that Voss had left the band to focus on other projects. In September, they announced their new vocalist, Julian Rolinger, with whom they recorded the album Wings of Time (2022).
