Newly reformed from the ashes of Spirit Caravan, guitarist/vocalist Scott "Wino" Weinrich and the pair of musicians who rounded out the former (and current) trio, have signed to Relapse Records for the first new The Obsessed record since The Church Within, which was issued back in 1994. The band will enter the studio this summer to record the tentatively entitled Sacred album. A demo version of the song "Be The Night" from the forthcoming album can be heard below.




Scott "Wino" Weinrich commented on the signing and reformation of the band: "The time is now for rebirth of The Obsessed. Fueled with the anger, wisdom and energy of all things past, this monumental achievement is the culmination of many years of dogged determination and the belief in the music. This music that we and many others find healing and inspirational. At last it sees the light, uncompromising and laden with passion and intensity that we'll immortalize on our new album. We're happy to officially announce our signing with Relapse Records. They also believe in the music and are very understanding of our integrity, vision and aspirations. On tour right now in the USA, we are celebrating this experience with glorious sound. Join us on this golden road. Thanks to all who believe!"
