I've been listening to a good bit of Juliana Hatfield and Evan Dando and their related projects lately. They feel about right for right now. If you like poppp "rock" music/catchy tunes and don't know them, here are some current favorites:

Blake Babies - Brain Damage (youtube)

Evan Dando - Waking Up (bandcamp)

Juliana Hatfield - Receiver (bandcamp)
