About THE OBSESSED:
THE OBSESSED was formed in the late 1970s in Potomac, Maryland by legendary guitarist Scott “Wino” Weinrich (SAINT VITUS, SPIRIT CARAVAN). The earliest line-up consisted of Wino, bassist Mark Laue, guitarist John Reese, and drummer Dave Flood. In 1983, Wino took over vocal duties and the band became a three-piece to record the Sodden Jackal EP, not long after they disbanded. At that time, a German label, Hellhound Records, and the booking agency that had signed SAINT VITUS, released The Obsessed, originally recorded in 1985, prompting Wino to reform THE OBSESSED.
After multiple line-up changes, the band signed to Columbia Records in 1994 to release their third and final album, The Church Within. Despite highly acclaimed reviews, THE OBSESSED would breakup following the release, seeing Wino forming SPIRIT CARAVAN (then SHINE) and other projects. In September 2011, THE OBSESSED returned to the stage at Roadburn Festival with The Church Within‘s legendary line-up (featuring Wino, Greg Rogers, and Guy Pinhas). Wino announced the full-time return of THE OBSESSED in March 2016 and the band official signed to Relapse Records. In 2017, THE OBSESSED unleashed Sacred, the band’s first studio album in over twenty years, further pushing the band into the annals of heavy metal history. After a few years on the road, the line-up stabilized around Brian Costantino on drums, Chris Angleberger on bass, Jason Taylor on guitar, and Wino at the helm.
THE OBSESSED line-up:
Chris Angleberger - bass and vocals
Jason Taylor - guitar and vocals

About WITCHROT:
Formed in Toronto in 2018, WITCHROT was founded by Lea Reto (vocals) & Peter Turik (Guitar). After some international press over band disputes, betrayals, and a temporary break-up that made them the most famous band in the world (for a day...), the band re-formed with a new line-up. Together they recorded their debut full-length Hollow (2021) and this year's Live In the Hammer. More recently, Nick “Nido” Dolphin and Patrick Sherrard have joined the band on bass and keys, respectively. For this tour, the special guest drummer is Myles Deck of Cauldron.
WITCHROT is:
Lea Reto - Vocals
Peter Turik - Guitar
Myles Deck - Drums
Nick “Nido” Dolphin - Bass
Patrick Sherrard - Keys

About THE DEATH WHEELERS:
Heavily inspired by the aesthetics and ethos of bikesploitation movies such as The Wild Angels, Werewolves on Wheels and Psychomania, THE DEATH WHEELERS seek to glorify this unsung era of movie making through their sordid sounds. Taking musical cues from rock’s greats such as DAVIE ALLAN, THE CRAMPS, MOTORHEAD, THE STOOGES and GRAND FUNK RAILROAD, THE DEATH WHEELERS perpetrate the tradition of heaviness by making zero compromises when it comes to laying down the groove. Through their bare bone, stripped down, jammy approach of their very own brand of sleaze n’ roll, this instrumental Canadian quartet pushes the listeners to their deepest, filthiest carnal/sexual desires.
