Aja is all I've heard (other than if they songs that I would have heard due to popularity), but it's pretty damn good.  Way more well done than most of the pop/rock music that would be grouped in with it.
Which of you to gain me, tell, will risk uncertain pains of hell?
I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance.

I only heard Pretzel Logic and their comeback - album Two Against Nature. I wasn't very impressed, but because I really like Donald Fagen's The Nightfly and Kamakiriad, I would like to try out Steely Dan again.
 
As for Dan: still crazy about "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" though, so simple sounding and yet so delicate, convincing... great song.
