The Obsessed - 'Realize A Dream' (visualizer video)
Full length album νούμερο πέντε για τους The Obsessed. "Gilded Sorrow" ο τίτλος και έχει προγραμματισθεί να κυκλοφορήσει τον επόμενο μήνα. Οι The Obsessed δημιουργήθηκαν το μακρινό 1976 (τα τέσσερα πρώτα μέτη ως Warhorse) και συνεχίζουν μέχρι τις ημέρες μας (με αρκετά... διαλείμματα). Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει τέσσερις "ολοκληρωμένους", ισάριθμα demos, επτά singles, τέσσερα live albums και μία συλλογή. Το μόνο από τα αρχικά μέλη της μπάντας που έχει παραμείνει είναι ο Scott "Wino" Weinrich...
Παρακολουθούμε το μουσικό βίντεο του τραγουδιού "Realize A Dream", για το οποίο ο Scott "Wino" Weinrich μας λέει σχετικά:
«This track is an example of how amazing the universe is: I wrote this track while still in high school. Later, I showed it to Dale Flood, who asked to record it on the Unorthodox's "Asylum" album engineered by Frank Marchand.
Fast forward to The Obsessed's "Sacred" sessions with Frank. Out of the blue, he said that we should cover this Unorthodox song. I replied, "Realize A Dream?" He said, "Yeah, how did you know?".
"Because I wrote it!". This song is about destiny, questions on existence, and a human's quest for answers related to life. It's a real old song, but still relevant in my opinion.»
Δελτίο τύπου: «Scott “Wino” Weinrich is a living legend. In a way he’s the American version of Lemmy and shares many traits with the late, much beloved metal icon. He’s always been a rebel, loner and an outsider in an outsider scene, pursuing his music without regard for popularity or acceptance.
In the process he came to be considered one of the early pioneers of American doom. All of this began when he founded The Obsessed back in the 70s. As a key part of the 80s Washington / Maryland music scene, his music earned the respect of metal, punk and crossover fans alike while often being dubbed "doom metal".
Looking back though, it was really just gritty, street-wise American metal with a cynical bent and psychedelic flair. Now The Obsessed comes roaring back with their most rocking album of all time. Expanded to a 4-piece with the addition of Jason Taylor on guitar, the music is more aggressive, straight ahead and downright mean than ever before. Not that it matters anyway because it’s fucking Wino, man!»
