Here's what headliners Five Finger Death Punch and some of the other bands are saying about ShipRocked:

Ivan Moody, Five Finger Death Punch:
"We had a blast playing ShipRocked last year, and what better way to start off 2014 than cruising to the Caribbean? It was such a cool experience getting to hang with our fans and we look forward to coming back and bringing our two new albums with us this time."

In This Moment:
"We are excited beyond words to be back on ShipRocked for the third consecutive year. It's such an honor to be asked again and we plan on bringing the best show of our career to the ship this year, all guns blazing! We can't wait to meet the fans, drink piña coladas and rock the fuck out! See you on the boat!"

Cristina Scabbia, Lacuna Coil:
"ShipRocked is going to be fantastic! It is already kind of superfluous to say that a cruise from Miami to the Bahamas--full of metal kids, great bands and outstanding food--will be an experience I am incredibly excited to make, but can I also mention that I pretty much know all of the bands on board? That means this will be a cruise with friends…and I just can't wait to make new ones! Get onboard with us, you know you guys will regret it if you'll miss it. Rock on!"

Andrea Ferro, Lacuna Coil:
"What turns me on about being part of ShipRocked is that you close the gap between dreaming and doing. A great ship sailing from Miami to the Bahamas with a lot of great bands, friends and crazy rockers--yes please, it's gonna be awesome!"

Butcher Babies:
“We are beyond excited to join some of our favorite bands and fans on the fifth ShipRocked cruise! We’ve heard rumors about the debauchery that ensues when you mix metal with paradise…we’ve already got our bikinis and swim trunks packed!”
