While I disagree with the Dylan comparisons, Coner Oberst is still a terrific songwriter.

Okay, so it's not close to as good as Permission To Land, but it still differs from most of the other rock out there. And any rock with ripping guitar solos sits well with me.

Weezer, System of A Down, and Broken Social Scene were my disappointments.
