They don't explode with fire or shrapnel or anything like that (unless there happened to be shrapnel caught in its blast), but they do explode, yes. Wouldn't be lethal unless it struck you right in the neck or a SHITLOAD of power was put into it, but it's definitely an explosion of sorts. 

How did you think they kicked up enough dust to limit visibility in the Vesta/Aleph fight? XD
