Spirit Caravan

In the world of stoner/doom metal, Scott Weinrich (affectionately known as "Wino") is revered almost as a god. As the founder of The Obsessed (as well as a stint in St. Vitus), he has influenced countless bands over the years, as virtually every Sabbath-styled doom band owes at least a little bit to him. When The Obssessed decided to pack it in following the successful The Church Within album, Weinrich continued in a new band, briefly entitled Shine before the name switch to Spirit Caravan. The two albums released, Jug Fulla Sun and The Elusive Truth were everything one might expect from Weinrich -- topnotch songwriting, heavy riffing, and a voice perfectly suited to the style at hand. Weinrich initially folded the band in 2002, then revived it in 2013, and finally decided to take the current lineup and formally become The Obsessed once again, announcing the shift in March 2016.
