History
{{unreferenced section|date=June 2023}}
The Litmus Green formed in 1991 from the remnants of a band called Media Children, in which Rev. Sean, Ed, and Rick were group members and Mateo was a friend/roadie.
In September 2001, Larry (Resist & Exist) joined as a second guitarist. Litmus Green played what was thought would be the "last" show in October 2002, with Ron Martinez (Final Conflict, 46 Short) filling in on bass, at the Showcase Theatre in Corona, CA.
In 2009 the band was asked to get back together for a few shows. Things went well so the band decided to keep going. Nick (Jack’s Cold Sweat and an old Litmus roadie) joined on bass in mid 2010. In early 2013, Rick decided to hang up the drum sticks and Antonio Val joined as drummer that July.
