Detroit and using their huge UK Buzz to bring half of the cities bands back over the pond with them. I guess about 18 months ago they played a gig at the 100 club on Oxford Street (the same place the Sex Pistols caught the public eye) and all of a sudden all the music press was wetting themselves. Reports of people crying at how good this unknown band was, etc. Couple months later they are playing the huge outdoor mucis fests and then this new album goes to #1 and the riff from 'Seven Nation Army' is played on every BBC comercial.
When a song is played in the background on Eastenders you know the mainstream isn't far away.
