Derik & The Disasters - Derik & The Disasters [CD]

This CD captures a raw and spontaneous punk rock collaboration between Charlie Harper of UK Subs and Del Greening from Peter and the Test Tube Babies. Born from a shared admiration and a desire for a fresh musical outlet, the project features Vicky Smith on bass and Marley Perez on drums. Recorded in October 2025 with minimal pre-production, the album embodies a spontaneous and energetic punk sound.

The Genesis of a Punk Partnership:

Del Greening recounts how Charlie Harper's early influence and persistent encouragement led to this unique musical venture. Initially unnerved by Harper's intense focus at his band's gigs, Del eventually agreed to a collaboration. With both artists having more time, they decided to create something new and unpolished.

Recording Process:

Heading to Brighton Road recording studios, the quartet embarked on a recording session fueled by skeletal song ideas rather than extensive rehearsals. Charlie Harper's suggestion to simply jam led to a lively debate about the creative process, ultimately resulting in the authentic punk sound heard on the album.
