If you’re aiming on becoming the next hottest new band, it’s important to recognize just how far a solid chemistry within your members will take you. Sometimes, a group’s teamwork mindset can get skewed as their popularity rises. As bands get bigger, sometimes, members’ egos follow suit, inevitably making their stable chemistry to become something explosive.

Inspired by the recent Hall and Oates legal disputes — Daryl Hall filing a lawsuit and restraining order against John Oates —, Today’s Coffee Break is focusing on bands that had their fair share of conflict and drama. Think about groups with substantial backstage blowups, fist fights, firings and ugly feuds.
