A fancy term for 'break up'. Bands use it to think it
will soften the blow on their fans, when they infact know the harsh truth.
Can also be used when you
don't believe anything
will ever get done
Ex. 1:
Blink.182 and Sleater-Kinney say they're on 'indefinite hiatus', but everyone knows they've
broken up...
Ex. 2:
Pete Wentz says that Release The Bats 2 has been put on 'indefinite hiatus'. He might as well say it's never going to be released.
