THE STORY
After having played together in other bands for several years, guitarplayers Merijn Poolman, Peter Feddes and drummer Yuri Geeraths founded Gottlieb in October 2004. Their goal was to play aggressive and technical, yet melodic and straightforward music. Therefore they took their time to write and finalize new material. Singer Eric Tabben joined the band in July 2006 and guiterplayer John Russchen completed the line-up in april 2007.
Gottlieb's music is not easy to define. The sound is heavy, the music rocks, is in-your-face, dynamic, aggressive and melodic. In October 2007 the band entered the Soundpark Studio in Schiedam to record their debut EP "Salvation" containing 5 tracks. This record was finished and released in April 2008.
Gottlieb is doing regularly live shows and is allways working on new kick-ass material!
