"SubSonic is A Super High-fidelity Batman Utility Belt that works up your Data Access (using Linq in 3.0), throws in some much-needed utility functions, and generally speeds along your dev cycle."

Depending on how you use it, it does involve code generation (t4 templates used to create classes that represent your database objects).
