American Hi-Fi is a power pop/alternative rock band from Boston, Massachusetts, best known for their 2001 hit «Flavor of the Weak». To date they have released three studio albums, as well as a live album released only in Japan. The band returned to the studio to record their fourth album in May 2007. According to a radio interview given by the band in 2001, their name came from a chance meeting with Keith Richards at a club. When they mentioned to him that they were looking for a name, he suggested «American Hi-Fi.»

In early 2004 and without a backing label, the band headed to Los Angeles to begin work on a new album with producer Butch Walker. The album, Hearts on Parade, was released in Japan on July 14, 2004.
In 2005, American Hi-Fi were signed by Maverick Records, a division of Island. Maverick helped promote the lead single from Hearts on Parade, The Geeks Get the Girls, releasing it as a single for radio airplay and following with a music video in February 2005. American release of the full album was repeatedly delayed, finally occurring on April 12, 2005, almost a year after the initial release in Japan. Neither single released with the album broke into the Billboard Modern Rock charts. Fans complained that the new album was too «pop». Maverick dropped the band in autumn 2005 citing poor record sales.
In the winter of 2005, Playtone Records began seeking submissions for the Superman Returns soundtrack.
