Anti-Flag is NOT Anti-Break Up | Punk Rock Update | Frumess

from FRUMESS · host Jeff Frumess

On July 19, 2023, Anti-Flag posted an update on their Patreon announcing their disbandment and the intention to refund fans who were subscribed. Following this announcement, their website was taken down, and the band's social media accounts were deleted. Chris No. 2 also deleted his personal social media pages. The band has not released an explanation or official statement outside of Patreon confirming their breakup. The band was on tour in Europe at the time of their disbandment, due to support Dropkick Murphys at a show in Prague on July 21; the band also planned to tour alongside The Bouncing Souls in fall 2023. When asked to offer a statement regarding the breakup, the band's publicist declined to comment.
