A sudden death of a band member (usually the lead singer) that leads to the band's permanent break up. They will decide that the member that died was irreplaceable and thus cannot go on.
Please note that there are plenty of bands, like the Rolling Stones, that carried on after the loss of a bandmate. Sometimes the surviving members form a new band, like how the surviving members of Joy Division reformed as New Order when Ian Curtis killed himself.
Queen didn't disband when Freddie Mercury passed away and John Deacon left, they just changed as a band.
The Doors was kinda this because they released two shitty albums after Jim Morrison died.

Get the The End of The Worldmug.

Get the Chob endmug. More often than not, as far as train wrecks go, the ass end of a train wreck is arguably the most desirable position one might occupy whilst finding they are in the midst of a train wreck in process. The exception to this principle, of course, would be in the event that a train got ass wrecked. Even so, the ass-end of the offending party would most certainly fare significantly better than that of the violated party.
Boy: "Hey, Girl, did you have a rough night last night? You look like you just crawled out of the Ass End of a Train Wreck."
Girl: "Maybe so, but if you think I LOOK bad, I FEEL like that Train must have gotten Ass-Wrecked."
Girl: "Maybe so, but if you think I LOOK bad, I FEEL like that Train must have gotten Ass-Wrecked."

Girl: Did you hear that girl lost 100k followers on tiktok because she was problematic and called out by that other tiktoker?
Girl 2: Yes girl! She totally ended her.
Girl 2: Yes girl! She totally ended her.
