Bands that broke up or vanished too early

[tristy]

At The Drive-In.

They were just getting popular when they broke up. Relationship Of Command was going to put them in the mainstream, but I guess I can see why Omar & Cedric left. If band members aren't happy and aren't feeling the band anymore, why stay?

I'm kinda torn on this, since I would have loved to see ATDI get really popular and become huge, but then again, I got The Mars Volta out of it.

[GoGo Yubari]

Digable Planets. Even if their second album bombed, they should have kept going.

[Guest Cashmiesta]

I don't know what happened to an american punk band called The Assorted Jelly Beans, the last I heard of them, they was on Tony Hawks Underground soundtrack singing rebel yell.

Damn if I can get that song

Drowning Pool. They're still together but they'll never be the same again with out Dave. Their first album was ace.

[Enter Blue Guy]

I own the Prozak CD. I am not very proud of it, but we were all impressionable kids once.

I'd go with I Mother Earth. And not that shit nu-metal version we heard last year. I am talking about Edwin fronted. They came around the same type as Moist [another great band] and were tearing the shit out of the Canadian alt-scene. Than Edwin left and it all went too shit for both parties.

I'm a huge RATM fan, but I wouldn't consider their break up to be anything criminal. While I do wish they would have kept it going, they had a good run while it lasted.

[apsham]

I will say Moist too, wasn't there something about a comeback a while ago?

[Guest Booker T & The MG's]

Bran Van 3000.

And NOBODY who watched Much Music while Prozzak got airplay can say they didn't have a small soft spot for them.

White Zombie - Way better than Rob Zombie's solo stuff.

Slash's Snakepit - Way better than Velvet Revolver.

Stereomud - Best nu-metal band I've heard. Lasted 2 albums. Shame.

[DMN in the House]

Guns 'n Roses. They would have been THE GREATEST band to ever play. Hands down still a top 5 rock band of all time. They epitomized rock music to me. Fuck Axl Rose.

Metallica. Just to be a smartass, but really, Metallica hasn't been Metallica since... well, we all know when.

Anyway, my pick would have to be Alien Ant Farm. Did they break up, because I haven't heard shit about them in ages.

←

AAF are still together. Matter of fact, pick up The Punisher for your home video game system...they contributed a song to the soundtrack.

I'm sorry, but they could have done a LIT better than Chris Cornell.

Billy...you know better than that.

Yeah, I was going to point out that I was expecting a big Cornell/Audioslave/Soundgarden fan backlash. Personally, I love Cornell, and Cornell > De La Rocha (not that you can really compare, as Rocha is more of a rapper), so getting Cornell to work with them was a stroke of good luck in my opinion.

Trucks

They had 'It's Just Porn Mum' and then they vanished but then another song recently but now they vanished again.

One Minute Silence broke up too soon, I reckon. The first two albums were fantastico, I havent heard the third one. I should get around to it really.

[Billy Castillo]

I don't know...I've never thought much of Chris Cornell's voice.

To each his own, I guess.

What? They made three albums? What's the name of the third one? I have Buy Now, Save Later and Available In All Colors... What would be the third one?

Oh, and I agree, One Minute Silence disbanded way too early. They canceled an appearance in Finland in 2001, which made me kinda sad because I would have loved to go see them live. As for others, I think Refused should have enjoyed more time in existence.

The 3rd album was called "One Lie Fits All", and had at least 2 singles (one called "Revolution" that owned, and "I Wear My Skin", which I never heard)
