Guitar bands have enjoyed a good decade, with Kings of Leon, Coldplay, Snow Patrol and The Killers all featuring in the top 10 best-selling albums of the decade.
Only By The Night, Kings of Leon's fourth album, was released in 2008 and is credited with transforming the Tennessee band from a niche to a mainstream act.
It was also a successful decade for British artists, with Amy Winehouse, Take That and Duffy recording hugely successful albums. Winehouse's Back to Black, released in 2006, was the decade's second highest-selling long-player, followed by Coldplay's 2005 work X&Y.
However, the list of best-selling artists of the decade tells a slightly different story.
Four decades after they split, The Beatles come top, boosted by sales of 1, their greatest hits compilation, in 2000 and the re-release of all their previous albums earlier this year.
The enduring popularity of long-standing acts is also demonstrated by the presence of Bob Dylan and U2.

1. Only by the Night – Kings of Leon
