== [[Music]] ==
* The infamous [[wikipedia:27 club|27 Club]], a group of singers who all died at 27, greatly limiting their output, but they all left profound impacts on music:
** [[Robert Johnson]]
** [[The Rolling Stones|Brian Jones]]
** [[Jimi Hendrix]]
** [[Janis Joplin]]
** [[The Doors|Jim Morrison]]
** [[Nirvana|Kurt Cobain]]
** [[Amy Winehouse]]
* The [[Sex Pistols]] had a grand total of ''one'' studio album, yet they are considered the pioneers of [[Punk Rock]].
* [[Led Zeppelin]] had a career that spanned little more than a decade, cut short by drummer John Bonham's death. Their impact on the rock genre is undeniable, and their sound was one of the precursors to [[Heavy Metal]].
Line 67:
* [[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart]] died at 35, as noted in the page quote.
* [[Tom Lehrer]]. His recording career in the '50s and '60s produced only three full albums before he grew tired of the industry and retired to a life in academia.
* [[Aaliyah]] only released 3 albums over 7 years before her untimely death at the age of 22. However, she is considered one of the redefining artists of [[R and B]] in [[The Nineties]] and is probably one of the [[Trope Codifier
* Brazilian comedy rock band ''"Mamonas Assassinas"'' is definitely an example. A time interval of only 6 months between their sudden rise to fame, to the tragic airplane crash that killed all members in 1996. They only had one released album, but still remain one of the most popular and influential bands in Brazil to this day.
