An argument could be made for Coldplay being band of the decade. But I personnally think they're cack.

If the Libertines had still been together it would be them hands down

Yes, but in terms of units sold for an 'indie' band Coldplay would be up there. I don't think the Libertines would ever have shifted as many records in the States. Neither are really to my taste though.

Looking over the music I've bought in the last 10 years or so, the following have all had good outputs over the last decade:

Animal Collective
Arcade Fire (only 2 albums though)
Beck
Belle & Sebastian (some may argue their better material was in the 90s)
Bjork
Boards of Canada
The Decemberists
Explosions in the Sky
Flaming Lips
Franz Ferdinand
Grandaddy
Interpol
New Pornographers
Radiohead
The Strokes
Sigur Ros (best album in the 90s)
Sufjan Stevens
The National
The Shins
TV on the Radio

None I would necessarily describe as band of the 00s. Mass appeal and critical acclaim rarely go hand in hand these days.
