Snow Patrol have been around for ages. At least 5 years, by my reckoning.
They are shit too. |

It's only since the release on the 2nd February 2004 of the third album 'Final Straw' that the band have made it 'Big' so again my vote for the best band to have made it big over the last 2 - 3 years goes to The Snow Patrol |

I had heard of them before Final Straw, and so had a lot of other people.
All that happened was that they released an album that sounds like Coldplay and people bought it. They are horrible. They are too many bands to name who I like, who have released their debuts in the past 3 years. |

Narrow it down to this year, perhaps. Razorlight only released their first album last month.
But yeah, they are good. |

I only heard of Alkaline Trio in the past 3 years, so I would guess them. No idea if they were well known stateside before that or not.
Otherwise probably Funeral for a Friend or the Used |

OK, their debut album was released in the early to mid eighties.
They made their first video in the late 80s. The album that made them huge was in 1991. 13 years. I can see how you'd mess that up. ![]() |

Dave Mustaine made Metallica. He wrote four out of the ten songs on Kill 'Em All [including the best Metallica song, Phantom Lord].

Bob Rock made Alternica huge. Metallica broke up when Cliff Burton left the band.

I'd love to say Muse, but Origin of Symmetry was released about 5 years ago I think, and thats what made them big.
I'll say Snow Patrol then, Final Straw is a great album... |
