We’re pleased to bring you the exclusive stream of Disaster Committee‘s new album Seeing Red, being released tomorrow (February 12th) through the band and Panic State Records.

Vocalist/bassist Pat Higgins comments on the album:

“The title, ‘Seeing Red’ has a dual purpose with this album. When you pick up the physical version, it comes with red secret decoder glasses. So when you’re reading the 8 page liner notes, you’re literally seeing red (as well as seeing hidden messages, art and lyrics with the red glasses). The title also refers to the topics of the songs…Things that make us ‘see red,’ such as income inequality, social media addiction and people that don’t read.”

Disaster Committee is a four-piece rock band from Newark, Delaware, featuring Pat Higgins (vocals/bass), Lee Tarczynski (vocals/guitar), BJ Clements (guitar), and Chris Fanny (drums). While the group draws its influences from classic punk and hardcore, independent record label Paper + Plastick declared that Disaster Committee “is everything you’d expect from this genre without sounding stale or dated.” Their combination of catchy choruses, socially aware lyrics, and the “distinct snarl and growl [of the vocals] will make you dance” according to Paste Magazine, who named Disaster Committee one of “10 Delaware Bands You Should Listen to Now.”

In June 2012, Disaster Committee released a self-titled four song EP. In the fall of 2013, they self-published their first full length record, Shipwrecked, via a successful Kickstarter campaign. Disaster Committee unleashed a limited edition lathe cut 7” single/comic book for their song, Never Mind the Science, Have a Blessed Day. in the summer of 2015, which was followed by an 8 song EP, Seeing Red, which can be streamed above.

The members of Disaster Committee also share their talents with other great area bands: Chris plays drums in the Philadelphia based garage rock band The Scovilles, Lee plays bass for PA/DE based thrash pop band Victory Boy, and Pat plays bass for Feral Ponies from Newark, Delaware.
