American doom metal icons THE OBSESSED have inked a worldwide deal with Heavy Psych Sounds Records for the release of their new studio album in 2027.
THE OBSESSED frontman Scott "Wino" Weinrich declares: "We are very happy to announce THE OBSESSED signing with the premier hard rock label Heavy Psych Sounds!
"THE OBSESSED is currently finishing the next full-length record, which will be released with HPS. Stay tuned, and thanks to all who believe."
In June, THE OBSESSED announced that the band had entered Waterford Digital Studio in Pasadena, Maryland with producer Frank Marchand to begin recording the band's new full-length album, "Live Fast - Love Hard - Die Free".
THE OBSESSED said: "We're exited as fukk to lay this on y'all , YAHOOO!!!"
The band's latest record, "Gilded Sorrow", was released in early 2024 on Ripple Music and lauded as a "must-listen for fans of the genre and a compelling entry point for newer voyagers into the world of doom" by Metal Hammer and "the best the band has ever sounded" by Ghost Cult magazine.
THE OBSESSED welcomed heavy rock titan Bob Pantella (also of MONSTER MAGNET) to the lineup as their new drummer in 2025, marking a new chapter in their legacy. Now, in 2026, the band has signed to Heavy Psych Sounds and is working on a new album, the official release date of which has yet to be announced.
