Sinking Ships were an American hardcore punk band from Seattle, Washington, formed in 2004. In 2005, the band released their debut EP, Meridian, on Run for Cover Records and later reissued on 6131 Records and contributed the track "Turn My Headphones Up" to the Generations compilation released on Revelation Records.
Later that year, Sinking Ships signed to Revelation Records and released their album, Disconnecting, in July 2006. During their existence, Sinking Ships toured with bands such as Comeback Kid, Down To Nothing, Shook Ones, Blacklisted, and Shipwreck. They also released an EP on Revelation entitled Ten, as well as the tour-only single "Safe". Sinking Ships also released a split album released in Japan on the Alliance Trax label with the Japanese bands As We Let Go and My Love.
In the spring and summer of 2008, Sinking Ships played the Rainfest festival.
Members have gone on to play in Wait In Vain, Self Defense Family, Gone But Not Forgotten, Meltdown, and A Storm of Light.
In 2013, the band reunited for the Rainfest pre-show.
