The Obsessed currently features Weinrich alongside drummer Brian Costantino and bassist Brian “Wendy” White (Dog Fashion Disco).
 
 
In 2017, The Obsessed unleashed Sacred, the band’s first studio album in in over twenty years. Sounding heavier and more relevant than ever before, on Sacred, the band doubles down on enormous, heaving riffs, and pummeling low-end across twelve tracks of eternal doom. Rounded out by legendary guitarist/vocalist Scott “Wino” Weinrich’s lyrical honesty and iconic throaty vocals, Sacred is an album that further pushes The Obsessed into the annals of heavy metal history.
 
The band followed Sacred with a special remastered edition of their now-legendary self-titled debut. Originally released in 1990 and out-of-print for almost two decades, the collection boasts previously unreleased bonus tracks, including the highly sought after four-track Concrete Cancer demo (1984), expanded artwork, never-before-seen photos, and extended liner notes from Weinrich making for a true piece of doom rock history. The deluxe 2xCD version of the record includes a bonus disc containing the Concrete Cancer demo as well as a full live set from 1985 in Washington, D.C..
