If you have even a passing interest in heavy music,
this man needs little introduction. From The Obsessed
to Saint Vitus, Spirit Caravan and a substantial
solo catalogue, Scott “Wino” Weinrich
has been a fixture of the underground metal scene
for nearly half a century. We met him before
The Obsessed engulfed Glazart in darkness and
billows of smoke, and he proved every bit the
character his reputation suggests.
A quick technical disclaimer: the first four minutes of the interview are out of focus. We would like to blame alcohol, faulty equipment or some other respectable rock ’n’ roll excuse, but the truth is considerably less glamorous: we simply screwed up. The focus improves at around 3:52, and we think the conversation itself more than makes up for the visual mishap.
