Recent observations of two nearby SN-less long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), which share no obvious characteristics in their prompt emission, suggest a new phenomenological type of massive stellar death. Here we briefly review the observational properties of these bursts and their proposed hosts, and discuss whether a new GRB classification scheme is needed.
