For fans of the indie-electro duo Crystal Castles, the news of the band’s sudden break up hit hard and fast. This is always the case when bands break up however, it feels almost as personal as the break up of a parental couple or, in some cases if the band is truly close to your heart, it can feel as if YOU have been broken up with. We have certainly endured the end of some amazing bands throughout the years. Here are a few of the bands that have broken our hearts when they broke off their music careers.

The Beatles
Ok yes, way before our time and half of the members are dead but Beatles nostalgia happens even to those who weren’t even alive when this band was in their hey day and listening to fake accented Beatles tribute bands just doesn’t seem to cut it.
