Frontman Chris Doherty commented:

“Since the stroke, getting back on stage is really all I have thought about. We tried doing some shows a few years ago, and it was fun, but it wasn’t right, and I definitely wasn’t ready — physically or mentally — so it just turned into fucking absolute chaos. And not the good kind. This time, we assembled one of the best lineups Gang Green has ever had, and for the first time, I have a great team. It definitely feels like Gang Green, and these songs are being played like they never have before. So fucking heavy. So fucking fast. What do you get when you take some of the fastest, heaviest, nastiest punk rock ever recorded and make it faster, heavier, and nastier? Come find out. But to be able to get on stage with this lineup and tear up ‘Another Wasted Night’ is going to be incredible. Funny being the weak link in my own band, but that’s fucking punk rock.”

Doherty and author Thom Hazaert are also working on an oral history of Gang Green titled “Boston Sober.” The book was put together with a number of extensive interviews and it will be released in early 2027. Hazaert said the following about that:

“Yeah, there’s definitely some nostalgia, and it’s fun to talk about this kind of stuff. But at its core, the book is about survival. About the people who made it through, the ones who didn’t, and the culture that formed when all these straightedge bands, alcoholic bands, clubs, artists, and weirdos collided in one city at one moment in time — and how fleeting that moment actually was.”
