Tragically, Negru unexpectedly died from a heart attack in March 2017, age 42. The band chose to break up as a result, although there was a small stroke of fortune in that Negru had completed the drum parts for the final album of the band's projected Transylvanian Trilogy, ''Zău'', before his death. The surviving band members finished recording their parts, and ''Zău'' was released in 2021. Sou Faur and Hupogrammos have a spin-off project called Dordeduh ("Longing for Spirit") which continues in a similar style and has released two albums, 2012's ''Dar de duh'' (''Gift of Spirit'') and 2021's ''Har'' (''Grace''); four other surviving members and ex-members of Negură Bunget formed a new project called Sur Austru, which has also released two albums, 2019's ''Meteahna timpurilor'' and 2021's ''Obârșie''.

** Dordeduh also qualifies now after Mafa's death, depending upon one's interpretation; see StartMyOwn below.

* UncertainDoom: Was a case after Mafa's death until the surviving band members announced the dissolution of the band after roughly a year of radio silence. Fans had speculated that ''Zău'', the third album of the planned Transilvanian Trilogy, had been at least partially written and recorded at the time of Negru's death; it was later revealed that, by a stroke of luck, Negru had already recorded all his drum parts for the album, and the songs had been rehearsed enough that the surviving band members could record the remaining parts. The album was released in 2021.

Tragically, Negru unexpectedly died from a heart attack in March 2017, age 42.

Sou Faur and Hupogrammos have a spin-off project called Dordeduh which continues in a similar style; four other surviving members and ex-members of Negură Bunget formed a new project called Sur Austru.

** Notably, there isn't a song on ''[='=]n crugu bradului'' that's ''shorter'' than twelve minutes long. ''Zău'' deserves mention here too; its shortest song is just under seven minutes long.



* {{Jerkass}}: It has been alleged that Negru effectively deceived the other two band members out of their position in the band. It's not clear whether this actually happened, however, and if it did, then judging from their eulogy on Dordeduh's Facebook page after his death, Hupogrammos and Sol Faur didn't seem to bear him any ill will over it.
* LeadDrummer: Negru had aspects of this, as he tended to be the member of the band who interacted most with the press, and until his death, he was the only constant member of the band. The band didn't credit individual songwriters, so it's difficult to know who wrote what, but due to the continuity in sound between albums, it's reasonable to conclude that he was at least partially responsible for writing and arranging most of the band's songs, and his background in academia is certainly reflected in the band's lyrics, so one can conclude he probably wrote a lot of them. (At the same time, the similar continuity in sound between ''Om'' and Dordeduh's material suggests that Hupogrammos and Sol Faur contributed to the writing and arrangement process when they were in the band as well.) His technical skill as a drummer was also important to their sound in a genre that is technically demanding of drummers to begin with. Negru was so important to the band that they ultimately chose to break up after his death (though several surviving members did reconvene under a different band name, much as surviving members of Windir did after Valfar's death).

It was later on confirmed by the band to be set to be completed no matter the cost and was slated for release in 2021 as ''Zău''.

* EpicRocking: A specialty of the band. The best example may be ''[='=]n crugu bradului'', which lasts for nearly fifty-four minutes despite only containing four tracks. Their longest song is "III" from ''[='=]n crugu bradului'', which runs for 15:13, unless you count live {{medley}}s, in which case ''Focol viu'' has a medley of "II" and "III" that runs for 16:14. Spin-off Dordeduh beat both of these with "Jind de tronuri", which runs for 16:20.
