SUMMARY:The Obsessed w/ The Great Iron Snake / Radian / Bessemer Saints
DESCRIPTION:7 PM Doors | 8 PM Show\nAll Ages\n$18.50 ADV / $22 DOS \nSince their formation in 1978\, they have become known around the world for their influential contribution to the origins and continued legacy of the doom metal and underground hard rock genres. The distinctive vocals and guitar wizardry of founder and driving force Scott “Wino” Weinrich has left a mark on the world of heavy music that continues to inspire. \nThe Obsessed gained momentum in the Baltimore/DC area of the USA in the early to mid 1980’s during the height of the hardcore punk movement. Often cited as the band that bridged heavy metal and punk together\, the band gained the respect of punk heavy weight contemporaries Black Flag\, The Bad Brains\, and Minor Threat\, to name a few. The attitude and spirit of The Obsessed has led many to regard them as “America’s Motorhead”. \nWino went on to join the doom metal giants Saint Vitus as lead singer on seminal albums including 1986’s ‘Born Too Late’‘. In 1990\, The Obsessed came back with their eponymous debut album\, “The Obsessed”. This album was quickly followed by 1991’s “Lunar Womb” and 1994’s “The Church within. \nThe band then signed with Relapse Records and recorded 2017’s “Sacred”\, an album showing The Obsessed were back with pure vengeance. Sacred brought the band to venues and festival stages around the world. \nIn 2022 the band became a four piece with the addition of Chris Angleberger on bass and Jason Taylor on guitar. The band has been touring heavily since and have been seen on USA and European festival stages such as HellFest\, Freak Valley Festival\, Snowblind Festival and multiple DesertFests. \nThe band’s 2024 album\, Gilded Sorrow\, on Ripple Music\, marked a new chapter in their legacy. The album captures the essence of the band’s classic sound while adding a fresh new atmosphere with a dual guitar attack. In 2025\, Bob Pantella (The Atomic Bitchwax\, Monster Magnet\, Raging Slab) joined The Obsessed on drums. To quote Wino\, “This is the strongest The Obsessed has ever been. We are geared up and ready to play. We will be hitting your city soon!”
