On July 19, 2023, the band 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. 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 in North America alongside The Bouncing Souls in fall 2023. When asked to offer a statement regarding the breakup, the band’s publicist declined to comment. Stereogum and Us Weekly linked Anti-Flag’s July 2023 breakup to a podcast episode released on July 19, the same day as the band’s dissolution, that leveled possible accusations of sexual assault against “a singer in a political punk band” believed to be frontman Justin Sane.
