Why do many rock bands become disband?

Question

To make it clearer:

There are many rock bands and some of them decide to disband. What reasons do they have for disbanding?

Answer 1

Any artistic venture is difficult because everyone wants to be the standout and have their individual material used. It's a give and take relationship. Then throw-in the 'road' the 'studio' and other unmentionable things and what you got is living hell for somebody. I gotta get out of this place...

Answer 2

I was in two bands in the 70's and 80's. Each time, we'd come together with a common goal but people have different ideas where they want to go. Last group I was in, one didn't want to play anywhere else but his home town, another fell in love and quit to spend time with his woman, another started using drugs, they were three quick changes, then one of the new ones started fights deliberately...in the end, I just walked away myself. Get the drift!

Answer 3

G'day Do It Harder, Thank you for your question. I would look at selecting a new name given that your suggestions have been used. However, there was a British goddess that became known as Sul-Minerva. Alternatively, she was a virgin Goddess so how about the Virgin Goddesses or Minerva's Wisdom, Minerva's Arts, Minerva's Helmet, Minerva's Shield etc. Regards

Answer 4

Family Problems Or They Fall Out

Answer 5

It's probably just because they get into disagreements over money etc. or they decide that they want to settle down. Sometimes the band loses all their popularity so there's no point in them staying together.

Answer 6

They all want to express themselves within the band, so they end up having creative differences.

Answer 7

Ego primarily, creative differences secondarily.
