Like Dinosaur Jr. Who could’ve guessed this reunion would be so fruitful?

And John Doe, who’s gone full-on country with those amazin’ Canadians, The Sadies.

And Sonic Youth. Is it just me or are they getting better?

    Interesting. What type of music would you say you like?

      Ann: I try my best to keep up with a little bit of everything, and I’m more successful in some areas than others. At my core, though, my biggest love is catchy, poppy rock and rootsy, twangy rock.

      As for Pete Yorn, I’ve never actually given him a listen (beyond maybe a song or two), so I don’t know that I think anything about him. Doesn’t he have a record coming out with Scarlett Johansson? I think he does…
