Anti-Flag Break Up

Anti-Flag, the stalwart political punk band, announced their breakup yesterday on Patreon, deleting their website and social media pages. The news came suddenly, without explanation; they had been on tour and due to support Dropkick Murphys in Prague tomorrow, as Stereogum notes. The band’s publicist declined to comment on the situation.

The breakup post reads:

Anti-Flag has disbanded. the patreon has been switched into a mode where it will no longer charge the monthly fee.

i will begin to process refunds to all patrons in the coming weeks. once all refunds are processed the patreon page will also be removed.

The Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, band is fronted by Justin Geever, known as Justin Sane, and released a string of records from the 1990s to the present day through labels including Fat Wreck Chords, RCA, Spinefarm, and its own A-F imprint. Anti-Flag’s latest album, Lies They Tell Our Children, came out this year.
