Bands who quit too soon
Thrillho:
In the last five years or so there seems to have been a rash of (mostly) British bands breaking up very early in the career and long before they've achieved everything they could have, or at least in my opinion. Hope of the States, for example, only made two records before they split. The first one I consider a modern classic, the second one not so, but I think their third album would have been fascinating. But they split without making one.
So what are some bands that you think broke up too soon, or too late, or better yet at the right time? Refused I think broke up at the perfect time. The Shape Of Punk To Come is one of the greatest albums ever made, virtually flawless, and I think they'd have spent the rest of their career with the weight of the expectation to better it.

Lone Wolf & Cub was a mathy post-rock band from Michigan who quit too soon. They only made one album and it was pretty damn brilliant. I would have loved to seen these guys live.

Pretty much every band who formed in Washington, D.C. in the eighties. ('cept Bad Brains, bless their cotton socks)

Does 1993 count as the eighties, too? (Dismemberment Plan)
