The Obsessed announce new album ‘Gilded Sorrow’

THE OBSESSED have announced a new album!

Titled Gilded Sorrow, the upcoming album from the veteran American doom metal band is the long-awaited follow-up to 2017’s Sacred, and is scheduled to be released in February next year, via Ripple Music.

The upcoming new album was produced by Frank Marchand,  guitarist/vocalist Scott ‘Wino’ Weinrich and guitarist Jason Taylor. The album was mixed and engineered by Frank Marchand and mastered by Alan Douches.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, THE OBSESSED have released a new song from the upcoming album; Stoned Back To The Bomb Age.

Speaking about the new song, Weinrich says, “there was a time when I listened to a lot of daytime radio to take the edge off an extremely mundane lifestyle. George W. Bush was president and the USA had started the Afghanistan war. One day, I heard Deputy Secretary of Defense Armitage say: ‘If Pakistan gets involved in this, we will bomb them back to the stone age’. I was struck by the callous brutality of this statement, and we crafted Stoned Back To The Bomb Age in a straightforward fukk you to these inhuman war pigs and the other unelected swine that run the world and are plotting humanities demise as you read this!”
