Biography

What do you get when you put together a blues-metal head on guitar, a singer with a huge vocal variety, a bass player and drummer who have played together for over ten years, and finally, another guitar player who has a background in rock with a capital R? Gottlieb’s music varies just as much as the background of the band members and therefore sounds like no other band. From rocking verses, pounding breakdowns and melodic choruses, Gottlieb does not fear to use various styles of metal and rock and blend this into heavy, aggressive yet melodic songs.

Over the past few years Gottlieb has evolved into a furious five-headed rocking and moshing organism. This continuous growth has been captured on their debut five track EP Salvation (2008) and a self-produced two-track demo entitled A New Horizon (2010) and their latest self-titled.

About

We are defined as follows:

Blastbeat.nl: "Listen to this furious five, because not all that’s good comes from afar!"

Musicfrom.nl: "Delicious raw riffs in the five songs, which especially impress with the two guitarists tight play."

Jury Pappop: "The band manifested itself from the first beat as a five piece rocking and grooving organism.(...)Gottlieb didn’t fail to give away yet another tight performance."

3voor12: “The craftsmanship of this band roars through their bone marrow: metalcore at heart. Gottlieb takes you up and shakes you up. Technically a true masterpiece...”

3voor12: “(...) A good blend of roaring and clean vocals makes this band comparable to Killswitch Engage...”
