No. The more basalt the quieter the eruption. Basalt is deep deep material, from down where there are few volatiles to make lava explosive.
Thin lava
it is a shield volcano
Igneous rock, such as basalt or andesite, results from the cooling of lava from a volcano.
it is explosive! and shoots out lava and magma.
Quiet volcanoes explode with much less suddenness, because lava does not cool and harden. The lava that creates a quiet volcano is still runny and flowing, and do not plug the craters and trap huge quantities of explosive gas. However, pockets of hot gas form that squirt fountains of lava into the air. Because lava flows away before hardening, broad sheets of lava and wide, gently sloping domes are formed around the volcano. When the lava has dried, it forms a rock known as basalt.
You would expect to find lava solidifying into basalt at the surface of a volcano or lava flow. Basalt is a common volcanic rock that forms when lava cools and solidifies quickly, usually in areas with high volcanic activity.

Basalt is formed when low-silica lava erupts from a volcano and later cools.
Quiet eruptions are a characteristic of basalt lava flows and plateaus.

The type of lava flow lets you know the different type of volcano. Not all volcanoes are "explosive". Basalt volcano you can practically stand and watch as it explodes. Where as an andesite volcano you want to be far away. Also the different lava flow lets you know where the melting is occurring. If the flow is high in granitic composition it means the continental crust has melted. If the flow is high in basalt it is a oceanic crust melt.
Lava because pyroclastic material explodes from a volcano, Lava just runs down the surface of the volcano nonexplosive or explosive.
