The band is known for clever and sometimes sarcastic lyrics, as they frequently use their songs as vehicles to lampoon perceived excesses in Western culture.
Their musical style combines elements of alternative rock and Britpop,[1] anchored by melodically powerful choruses.
All Star United's songs have been licensed in recent years for use on ABC's The Evidence, the movie Saved!, the trailer for the film Superbad, and multiple CBS network imaging campaigns.
All Star United was formed in 1996 by frontman Ian Eskelin, drummer Christian Crowe, guitarist Brian Whitman, keyboardist Patrick McCallum, and bassist Gary Miller.
After this, the band retired from heavy touring while Eskelin recorded and released a solo project and produced albums for several other artists.
