Press Reviews "Hardcore political thrash, very old school LA or DC, if you know what I mean about hardcore punk styles. I've noticed that they're very popular with teen punks, so if you're a teen and wanna be a punk, then throw away all that poppy ska that's so trendy these days and pick up some ripping punk. This." – Flipside ....."Litmus Green is definitely a throwback to the insanity of bands like the Germs and even the Pistols. Punk is far from dead with bands like this putting out raw punk with an engaging political focus." – Skratch ...."I'm so glad that there are still a few bands who can play some total kick-ass punk rock! This band is awesome! It's like a pogo beat gone manic and the vocals totally match it. These guys absolutely rule!" – Slug & Lettuce ....."With nothing more than speed, emotion and adrenaline to fuel their songs, Rev. Sean barks out stinging condemnations of everyone and everything from organized religion to the president to Jenny Craig with equal venom. This is no sissy pop-punk, this is raw, politically-charged, anarchistic old school punk rock.” –Exclaim ....."Superhektischer, überdrehter Punk/Hardcore in bester SNFU / DAYGLO ABORTIONS / VANDALS Manier. Endlich mal wieder eine Band, die die Binge beim Namen nennt und nich nur introvertierte Scheisse absondert. LITMUS GREEN fuckin’ rule!” – Ox Magazine
