After nearly nine years of rocking and rolling with you all, we The Explosion have decided to disband. We would like to thank each and every one of our fans who have supported us through this time. We made some great friends along the way, a few mistakes, but all and all we had one hell of a great time doing it. Thanks again!

Your friends, The Explosion

PS Look forward to a last show or two this summer. Also look out for the release of our final studio recording, "Bury Me Standing" on some label or another.

Will always remember the (at least) 5 times I saw you live. One of the best bands around - always gets the crowd going, always gets people jumping and so involved with your sets.

You'll be missed.

I will never forget the first Demo and the good times I had with you guys. In the early Tommy and the Terrors days, we use to blast that tape over and over again on Nantasket Beach with 10 skinheads running around playing soccer like little hooligans. I'll never forget the shows at Twisters I caught and everything else along the way. Best of luck. Hopefully I'll see you guys around soon. Cheers. You will be missed. Flash Flash Flash IS the best record to come out of Boston, and you know it. Much love and respect to the spidery punks.

<P>this cannot happen! i just found out about this on the radio 1 punk show, guys, you were destined to be the next drop kick murphys - only better!</P><P>man it so sucks that the fitrst and only time i got to hear you was download. i know the crowd wasnt too up for it but i started a quality slam pit an then everyone joined in, it was awesome and when theres so many generic bands out there it was refreshing to come across a band with balls but also melodies as rocking as urs! u guys better re-band in the near future or i wont be happy - u still have a lot to offer the world of punk!!!</P>

I haven't been on here for a while.................. I am so disappointed, but I wish you guys all the best and every success with whatever you are up to next. We have only seen you live 3 times (but I listen to you almost everyday on my Sony)..Once supporting Good Charlotte at Brixton Academy, Once supporting AFI again at Brixton Academy and an amazing headline show at the Metro Club on Oxford Street. It was one of the best shows we have ever been to (and there's been a lot) It was an amazing line up, The Defeat, The Gallows and The (incredibly fantastic) Explosion. I know it sounds cheesy but THANK YOU for the Music guys XXXXxxx

Dude you guys have seriously been like one of my favorite bands, starting with (of course) the song "No Revolution" on Tony Hawks underground.
I'm really gonna miss you guys.

What?
holy shit

You guys never got as big as you should have, but u did great

Music has lost another band that knows how to rock due to the media, and the rest of the world falling into a pit of shitty pop "rock" and rockers who sing about bullshit like weddings?
seriously, who gives a fuck about weddings?

It's sad

BUT THANK YOU FOR SHOWING US A GOOD TIME!
YOU GUYS ARE AMONG MY FAVORITE PUNK BANDS, AND YOU HAVE DEFINANTLY BEEN A GREAT, FUN, AND HARDCORE BAND

WE WILL MISS YOU :(
