Power pop has been one of my guilty pleasures since my days of listening to the Raspberries on 8 track (interspersed with the Stones, ABBA, ZZ Top, and Led Zep).

Matthew Sweet has a new disk out called "Living Things". I think it will be released on Sept 7, but I downloaded it through Emusic.com. Great piece of tasty guitar pop. Can't comment on mix or production yet as I've only got in on my computer. After a couple of listens I give it a thumbs up. I'd welcome any recommendations if anybody's heard anything new and/or similar.
