why of all the groups were they the ones that really broke out

The thing with the Stone Roses is that simply listening to their debut album makes some people feel amazing. I remember it happening to me. It was almost euphoric.

If that doesn't happen to you then I can see how they come across as boring.

So basically, if someone doesn't enjoy the album you could see how they don't enjoy that album?

Revolutionary.

wouldn't be surprised if Stone Roses broke out simply because they're the most classic rock act of that scene
I'm not entirely sure who counts as "Madchester" (for example, I saw one list say New Order counted, but only that one list seemed to say that, and I'd think they'd be on every list if they were commonly considered to be a Madchester band), but per the artists who seem to be frequently listed as Madchester, I think I've only heard Stone Roses and EMF. At that, I haven't the foggiest idea what Stone Roses sound like, because they didn't seem very interesting to me when I checked them out on youtube, and I never bothered with them after that, plus EMF I only know because of "Unbelievable," which was huge in the US in the early 90s. I wouldn't know another song of theirs.
