In late 1984, Chris Doherty reemerged with an all new Gang Green lineup consisting of former members of D.A.M.M. (Drunks Against Mad Mothers), The Freeze and Smegma And The Nunz. Chuck Stilphen (lead guitar), Glen Stilphen (bass, vocals) and Walter Gustafson (drums). This second lineup is the most famous nationally as it was both the first to tour and the one that recorded the songs “Alcohol” and “Skate to Hell”. This edition of Gang Green released the debut album Another Wasted Night on Taang! Records in 1986. This record is considered to be the band’s best recording and is regarded as one of the definitive hardcore punk records of its time. This line-up of Doherty, Stilphen, Stilphen and Gustafson only existed for one year from November 1984 until November 1985 before Gustafson quit to pursue The Outlets. The sound of the band changed again after this point. The brothers went on to form Mallet Head and Scratch. Glen was in The Northern Skulls from 2018–2021 with Jonah Jenkins (Only Living Witness, Milligram), Johnny Mullin and Michael Lefebvre. Glen is currently in Spiller with Jack Clark long-time drummer of Jerry’s Kids, Greg Fiore and Chris Pearson from Green Magnet School.
