The Aluminum Group emerged from Chicago in the mid-'90s with a lushly orchestrated sound that had its roots in '70s soft pop and lounge, but also included elements of new wave, chamber pop, and even Tropicalia. The project of brothers John and Frank Navin, the band found some traction in the late '90s with a pair of well-regarded albums on the Minty Fresh label including 1999's Jim O'Rourke-produced standout Pedals. Working with various collaborators, the brothers continued to evolve their sophisticated pop sound into the 21st century with a trilogy of albums that concluded with 2008's Little Happyness. After a 14-year hiatus, the Aluminum Group returned in 2022 with their eponymous eighth album.
