Background notes

Archive material and source history

The Aloof formed in Los Angeles in 1993 around vocalist and guitarist Jason Falkner and bassist/keyboardist Erik Paparazzi, with drummer Mike Watt joining early on. They released their debut album 'I'm in Love with My Car' in 1995, which established their atmospheric, melancholic indie rock sound.

Their 1996 sophomore album 'Fly in the Face of Love' brought wider attention, particularly through the single 'All I Want Is You.' That song became their most recognizable track, though other songs like 'Doing It For The Money' and 'Going Home' also appeared in their catalog. The band's lineup proved unstable over time, with Paparazzi departing in 1999 and Falkner putting the project on hold in 2001.
