Got Dinosaur Jr.'s "The Farm" for Christmas and finally gave it a listen. Wow. And this on top of "Beyond," which I also think is pretty great. Has there been another band that reformed and went on to record new music this vital and good? If so, who? I wanna hear it! Other Christmas booty: Teenage F...

I am opposed to My Chemical Romance on principle, but damn if some of their songs aren't insanely catchy. Chemical Brothers I've only heard on the radio machine.
