Ep 623 Wino & Sharlee: Create or Die - Ritual Arcana and the Obsessed all on their terms for 2026!

In this episode, I sit down with one of doom’s most influential voices, Scott “Wino” Weinrich, along with his wife and creative partner Sharlee, for an in-depth conversation covering everything they have happening right now and what’s coming next. We dive into The Obsessed's past & ongoing current tour in 2026, how the band is performing, what fans can expect from the setlist, and the renewed fire driving the group forward. Wino also opens up about his new solo album, the writing process behind it, and how his approach to songwriting continues to evolve after decades at the front of heavy music. Sharlee joins in to talk about the latest on Ritual Arcana — their dark, atmospheric, and deeply personal musical project. They share updates on new music, recording plans, upcoming videos, and the possibility of future touring together. From their creative chemistry to their shared vision for Ritual Arcana, the conversation gives a rare look at how their partnership fuels the art. Scott “Wino” Weinrich is a cornerstone of American doom and heavy rock. Frontman for The Obsessed, founding member of Spirit Caravan, icon of Saint Vitus, and a prolific solo artist, Wino’s impact spans more than four decades. His unmistakable guitar tone, spiritual lyricism, and uncompromising commitment to underground music have influenced generations of bands across doom, stoner, punk, and metal.
