In early 2018, following allegations of sexual assault committed by members of the band at a house they were staying in after a show, the band decided to break up, citing "We can’t accept fault, but we also can’t prove our innocence. That we could even be suspected of such a crime brings us to the end of the road. YAITW is no longer on Deathwish Inc and will not be playing anymore shows. There is nothing left for us to say." in a Facebook post. They had previously been dropped from their label and several upcoming festivals they had been scheduled to play, including Psycho Las Vegas and 71Grind IV.
