Outface was eventually fronted by Derrick Green who went on to become the singer for the Brazilian thrash metal band Sepultura. The band also featured Frank Cavanagh, the future bassist of Filter; Garriga would later play for CIV. Mark Konopka was Outface's drummer. They recorded one demo tape in 1987, and later reunited for a studio album, Friendly Green, released in 1992. Stylistically, their music varies between rock, metal and punk with ska elements, not unlike the early works of Red Hot Chili Peppers. Green was credited as Simon Verde on the Outface release.
