Back in its time, Skipp and Spector took the 'Stephen King Style of Storytelling' of using multiple voices and internal italicized thoughts and injected a kind of hip-jive lingo into the narrative, then added blood, sex, and rock 'n' roll into the mess. In the process, they gave us Splatterpunk (seen also in Clive Barker's early work). It was right for the times. [The above is my take on all this.]
They broke up in 1993, I think, over 'creative differences'; but probably - like most boy groups - they more than likely grew up and saw the world in different ways and wanted to express their individual creative uniqueness.
Spector is currently dealing with his stage four cancer.
