I think in a lot of bands after a while, certain members take on roles like songwriter or lead singer or lyricist, and when another member tries to contribute in what the they view as their niche, his creative input is shunned, which results in a schism.

I was in a cover band that separated a few months ago, principally because the bassist/vocalist and myself left. The other three guys never wanted to do anyything different. Now keep in mind, this was a bunch of high school kids ages 14-16 (I was the youngest), who played one paid gig. A school dance.
