Los Angeles-based punk band Gottlieb has released a new single titled “Normalcy,” a pointed and urgent track that critiques surveillance culture and institutional complacency. Known for their eclectic and aggressive sound, Gottlieb continues to carve out space in the contemporary hardcore scene with politically engaged lyrics and high-energy instrumentation.
Formed through grassroots channels and active in the West Coast punk circuit, Gottlieb has built a reputation for their live intensity and DIY ethic. The band’s lineup—brought together through community networks—reflects a commitment to local scene-building and creative autonomy.
“Normalcy” pairs relentless rhythm with a clear political message, reinforcing the band’s stance on civil liberties and anti-authoritarianism. The release follows recent tour dates across the western U.S. and hints at additional material currently in development, including a potential split release.
With “Normalcy,” Gottlieb adds to a growing body of work that is both musically forceful and socially aware, affirming their role in Los Angeles’ evolving punk landscape.
