Maryland Doom Fest has announced big headlines for their 2018 event, featuring The Obsessed, Weedeater and Windhand. Maryland-made band The Obsessed who recently came out with a new album Sacred, will play to their hometown for the festival’s third year. The heavy metal crew is led by members Scott Weinrich, Brian Costantino and Reid Raley. The band began touring in the promotion of their album last April in the city of Pittsburgh. Weedeater was formed in 1998 by members Dave Collins, Travis Owen, Dave Shepherd and Keith Kirkum.
