The Obsessed - Documentary '94 

He's the best! I saw the Obsessed at the Troc in Philly. I thought Wino was scary as shit. I told him I loved the gig, (it was AWESOME!) and that if I wasn't so broke I'd love to buy him a beer and a shot. He said "Wait there". Five minutes later he came back with a gym bag with a case of beer in it and some Obsessed shirts for me and my buddies. Fucking great guy! Long live Wino!

The very fact Wino is respected by such a diverse spectrum of musicians/artists says it all about how talented he is. He's a true Legend from the American underground. Period.

The Obsessed is a band that once you're in, you're in it for life.

I love The Obsessed And Saint Vitus.I love how Henry Rollins always sticks up for all of metal..

Wino kind of looks like a young Lemmy.

“The Obsessed have the sound of a man getting angry.........very slowly...”🤘😁

I saw The Obsessed when Church Within was released supporting Prong & Life of Agony in England ! Fucking stellar band live then & now !

Henry rollins and wino love motorhead that's cool

6:41 Cyrus on "Trailer Park Boys" always reminds me of Tesco Vee. In attitude as well as looks. Oh, and The Obsessed rock, obviously.

Very underrated band

I hung out with the Obsessed in the 80s when I worked at Peaches in Rockville MD. Anne Forrest. I KNOW!!

My buddy met Wino tonight. The obsessed played with COC and Crowbar in Philly. I'm at home watching this documentary on my toilet. Fuck my life lol

The Obsessed just released a new album after 20 years called Scared. It is a great album the best of the year so far.

Diggin’ them Maryland accents.

Thanks for posting this! I've had the VHS forever and now I can share this with all my buds. Righteous! Since the final(?) Obsessed album, The Church Within, Wino has gone on to play in such bands as Spirit Caravan, The Hidden Hand, Place of Skulls, Shrinebuilder, Premonition 13, and solo albums, and is still playing with the re-formed (and godlike) Saint Vitus.

Cool vid, I was fortunate to see him with Vitus this past June opening for Sleep

Wino is a cool dude. He is the truest. That Saint Vitus show in Huntington was amazing.

The Obsessed > Your favorite band

Seriously. Black Flag, Motorhead, and The Obsessed. It is a great playlist to drink booze with. You get a little bit of punk,metal, and old school rock with everything in between .

Saw the Obsessed in 1984 Tremendous, Powerful and Loud, Rocking!

I now have this compulsion to hear everything this band has ever recorded.

Great band. I remember talking to Wino after a gig in Newport and i said your fucking set was best iv ever seen man,so he hugged me! I didnt know what to do.Haha Top man, down to earth.

I fucking love B.A.L.L man. Going to have to check these guys out!!!

I saw them open for The Dead Boys at 9:30 club with Vance on vocals,unreal....Vance was pissing the crowd off,getting them ready for Dead Boys...Obsessed killed...

nvm, think i found it. thank you for posting this on youtube, it's awesome

a sea of baldheads shouting "haircut!, haircut!"... brilliant

Tom Lyle's commentary is amazing.... the fact that he was challenged to understand Wino's musicianship says a lot about how unique it is....

Got this on VHS and a guant sticker from Columbia Records. They sunk a ton of of money promoting The Church Within. It was just not the right time but its a classic.

I have this documentary on video cassette.Awesome band.

now i have motivation to finish my work so i can watch this

Haha What a Legend. This just confirms his status as a leading light. No bullshit just honest down to earth good person.

"You gotta be a big freak to watch that concert"

Criminally underrated band.

man, i never really realized before how much the melvins took from the obsessed! seriously........the melvins sound like the obsessed with a different singer and a better drummer lol

Greetings From DC!

wino is Lemmy of doom rock

That's entertainment. Drugs & Drugs & Rock'n'Roll

10:10 RIP Dave Sherman

The Sherman cameo is all kinds of hilarious.

Wino is fucking scary with makeup!! Really a great guitarist and singer...love all his projects!!

man, gotta love phil anselmo! drunk, tired, rapping his duty, craving the great outdoors. typical 90s thing: juxtapostion to H Rollins. The lost promotape!

Nice!👍

I like how Ian says Bad Bain.

Good for you, buddy!

Henry!!!!!!

I can’t believe that Henry Rollins is calling Wino intense when Henry is the literal definition of intensity

great comeback haha

I wish my dad was Wino.

@MMAlign THANK YOU SO FUCKIN MUCH!

7:09 damn that's some fucking great riffing to start a song

@MMAlign Streetside! Thanks

@ArcadeGoblin "Forever Midnight" from the first album

Must be the mandala effect. Never heard of this band, ever. Been a metal fan all my life, am intimately familiar with Fugazi--and all the other bands. Fucked up yo

Vitus Obsessed Lifer \m/

It just goes to show just how close minded most punk rockers are.

i wanna be scott 'wino' weinrich! the way he wanted to be tony iommi!.well i wanna be those guys then!.

damn, i have saint vitus and all but now I need to get the obsessed, what is the song title from 11:46 (just plays the opening) called?

Dave Sherman from Spirit Caravan and Earthride is a trip in this! haha

DOOM METAL IS REAL METAL.

Now we know we're lemmy got his look

I don't think that The Obsessed will ever get what they deserve;unfortunately.!!.Just my opinion!

What's the name of the first song in the intro?

what is the song in the background at 25:06 - 25:11

10 people just don't get it.

What's the song at 11:47?

Wooton High!

Wino looks a lil like a young Lemmy.🤘

Wino shreds

is that steve o in a wig at 10.26?

Wino has amazing tone but I never really connected w Obsessed or Saint Vitus in the way others did. Still, amazing tone.

Wino is pretty much the David Allan Coe of doom metal

dudes whats the song at 19:00

"streetside" from the church within

Streetside

nah it's real...it's not a serious documentary though, it's done in a lighthearted way.

guy works at omeba now lol

@ThemFunnyLookinGuys I give you a hint: listen to Henry at 1:40 and ask yourself, WHAT he would have liked to switch, when Wino was coming across him :)

Rip Dave Sherman

That fan, Dave Sherman, is the same Dave who played (or still play, I don't know) with Wino on Spirit Caravan? I think it is...

FUCK yea! WINO

I mostly watched this for other commentators like Henry Rollins, Dale Crover, Ian Mackaye, Scream..etc. Um, was Henry referring to S.O.A or Black Flag I wonder?

1:15 i'm a big freak

great doc. love the obsessed...one thing, Jennifer from L7 looks like a grade A tweaker. Was she ?

Dudes: what song starts at 7:10? Heavy as shit...

Justin Bieber can time travel 14:31

Why are Ian MacKaye's pants wet?

DOOM ON

Check out the doom stoner band HANZ KRYPT great great guitar player Phil Pedredtti totally underrated like Rory Gallagher and Frank Marino

ego massage documentary lol

lol is this serious or a joke really is this foreal ha ha

its pathetic live doesn't spin around the buttons

most likely SOA

Lynrdy Skynyrd like. In some songs

Good gosh I despise L7

left off at 10:45

Saint Vitus is better

The more I hear Rollins talk, the more I realize that he is pretty much a lackluster talent living off a couple moments that he got right.

so i'm gonna get some shit for this, but while i happen to think wino is the man, i'm a little skeptical and think all these claims of the obsessed and saint vitus being epic and legendary are overstated and have more to do with guys fan-girling over his persona rather than his music. while i love wino's guitar playing, i actually think he's a pretty lousy vocalist and lyricist. saint vitus is just awful and the obsessed has like 3 good songs, which is kind of pitiful for the amount of material they've put out. there's a LOT of filler material. i think wino could do a lot better if he was in a band where he was really relegated to guitar playing and left the vocals/lyrics to someone else. even his song-writing i feel is very hit or miss. for every brilliant song, there's 7 mediocre/bad ones where there's a lot of awkward pauses, the chorus and verses don't flow together and there riffs are sort of lack-luster. i'm not hating on him at all. i love wino but i'm gonna call bullshit on about half of this video.

Henry Rollins is such a dork.

see them at Dynamo open air in 1994 , great gig.
