Im nearly 100% sure Tool have been around for more then 5 years..Same with porcupine tree.

ok slightly confuzzled does it have to be a band that's only -existed- 5 years or a band that's personally impressed oneself in the past 5...? sorry for not understanding..

Only existed for 5 years.

That contradicts the thread title. "best band or artist in the past 5 years".

Tool and Porcupine Tree have both been around since the 90s...But they made some quality music in the 00s as well....Thats how i looked at it, what bands have been making the best music for the past 5 years.

I made a thread titled jethro tull it had nothing to do with jethro tull it depends on what the first post says.

"Do not be too quick to post here folk's, there are some rules and guidelines here. The question to be more clear is which band or artist which has appeared in the last 5 years."

well crap, I think that negates my choices.. heck I think even Yeah Yeah Yeahs have been around more then 5 years..

Theirs a diffirence between appears and been around.
We don't know when a band started in a garage, so just go by the debut album date.

Yeah sorry I was a little confused with the thread. Anyway, since Tool and PT won't work, I'll go with The Mars Volta.

The Faint
The Arcade Fire
The Postal Service
The Mars Volta
The Decemberists

All (with the exception of the Decemberists) have drawn mainstream attention to indie and alternative music, not to mention, have been able to take advantage of bits and pieces of the 1980s new wave, synth pop, and/or progressive movements, and bring it back to life for the 21st century.
