Eye for an Eye (abbreviated EFAE) was a Polish hardcore punk rock band founded in 1997 in Bielsko-Biała.^{[citation needed]} EFAE, as it is also known, played an old school style of punk, more along the veins of The Exploited or even, some say, Agnostic Front.^{[citation needed]} The punk stylings of EFAE has been compared to fellow countrymen Post Regiment, perhaps mostly due to the common factor of a female vocalist.^{[citation needed]} However, EFAE's Anna Koziel's vocal style is remarkably different from the nowadays disbanded Post Regiment's Dominika "Nika" Domczyk's style.^{[citation needed]}

EFAE was touring relatively extensively in a musical climate that was not at the time very receptive for retro trends.^{[citation needed]} The band split on November 21, 2015, 18 years to the day after their first concert.^{[citation needed]}
