Featured Tune: "Surrounded by Pretty Girls-Remastered" from Steve Lieberman, The Gangsta Rabbi

Chaos with Character — Steve Lieberman’s “Surrounded by Pretty Girls (Remastered)”

There’s nothing neat or polished about Steve Lieberman’s “Surrounded by Pretty Girls (Remastered)” — and that’s exactly the point. Known as The Gangsta Rabbi, Lieberman has spent five decades pushing punk into places most artists wouldn’t dare go. This track, a reimagined cut from his massive underground catalog, captures his signature brand of “militia punk” — a volatile fusion of noise, metal, and marching-band grit that refuses to sit still or play nice.

The song sounds like it’s been built in motion — clanging bass lines colliding with distorted guitars, rhythmic bursts pounding like a war drum, and Lieberman’s manic energy cutting through it all. Yet beneath the chaos lies something strangely magnetic: a raw, unfiltered joy that feels like freedom itself. Every rough edge and sonic explosion feels deliberate, as though the music’s imperfections are what make it alive.

What stands out most is Lieberman’s endurance. Fifty years deep, he’s still not chasing trends or smoothing out the sound. Instead, he doubles down on what made him an outsider icon — unapologetic noise, restless invention, and a stubborn kind of honesty that’s hard not to respect. “Surrounded by Pretty Girls (Remastered)” isn’t meant to soothe; it’s meant to shake you awake. Loud, unpredictable, and oddly exhilarating — just the way Lieberman likes it.
