The band was originally conceived as "Abandon Ship" but found the name already in use by an Oregon-based band and Scottish novelty band "A Band on Ship".

In early 2006 the band changed their name to "Abandon All Ships", retaining the imperative mood of the original name but allowing them to market themselves distinctively. Band lineup includes 6 members: Angelo Aita on Vocals (unclean) Dan Ciccotelli on Guitar Chris Taylor on Drums DJ Sebby C on Synth Martin Broda on Bass & Vocals (clean) User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License and may also be available under the GNU FDL..
