Captain, We're Sinking Bio:

We started as a band really because we weren’t good at anything else. There are so many great bands in Scranton and we just wanted to be part of it. Our influences range all over the place but the basics are newer bands that are still going now like against me, rx bandits, Lawrence arms but also stuff like comics, black coffee, and star wars. I would say three comparable bands are against me, hot water music, and latterman.

As for a mission I don’t really know. Its kind of cliche to just say make music and have fun but I guess that’s really our game plan right now. I really want to meet a lot of people and travel a lot so our mission would be write songs, record songs, tour, drink, meet people, throw up, drink and write more songs. See ya soon!

[…] Captain, We’re Sinking’s last album, The Future Is Cancelled, became an era defining record for me – the kind of album with songs that get stuck to a time and place; a friend’s car, an old couch, a city I left – and it was all heralded by the band’s angular, aggressive, and melodic take on punk rock. It was the music of The Menzingers, the Lawrence Arms, Hot Water Music, and Lifetime, but younger, meaner, and more desperate than any and all combined. The Future Is Cancelled was a record destined to be searched for tattooable lines, mined for meaning, and sung loud with open throats. It’s odd to think that it’s been four years since that record came out, and since then, save for a solo album and a B-sides and demos compilation, Captain, We’re Sinking has been relatively quiet. The new album, The King of No Man, is a welcome return for the Scranton punks – and no less an achievement than The Future Is Cancelled, arriving with a more expansive sound and just as cutting lyrics.
