In 1994, four friends from Maastricht started a band with one mission: to play hardcore the way hardcore was meant to be played. What followed was no hobby—it became an international movement.

In 2026, after 32 years, the curtains fall on this storied band. Not a quiet exit, but a farewell in style, with shows that give everything one last time. Backfire! was never a trend. Backfire! (and still is!) a pure statement.
