Expire was an American hardcore punk band based out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Signed to Bridge Nine Records, the band released three full length albums, three EP’s, and one split.

On August 8th, 2016, Expire announced that following the release of their third full length With Regret, the band would be embarking on multiple tours and then splitting up. The statement they released that day was as follows:

Come Spring of next year, we’ll be putting the band to rest. There isn’t some huge explanation to give. To put it simply, we all decided that we would rather end it on our terms and when we want to, rather than fade off. We’ve never been the type to only play a few shows here and there or sit dormant for any amount of time. Expire started as a band that didn’t know how to slow down and that’s the way we’ll end it.

This band snowballed into something none of us planned for and before it’s done, we want to extend a very real thank you to anyone and everyone who had a part in it over the past 7 years. Writing this comes with a pretty insane feeling, but really; thanks for supporting us, it’s been fun.

Starting in September, we’ll begin to say our goodbyes. Not even going to pretend like we will make it to every single city that’s meant something to us, but we’ll sure as hell try. Below are the dates we have as of now. Our final U.S. tour will be next spring so expect that to be announced sometime in the next few months.

Obviously with all of this being said, With Regret will be our final album. We could toss in one of a thousand cliches about it but simply put, it’s the record we wanted to leave on.

We’ll see y'all this fall
