The Obsessed US Tour 2016 was an tour featuring The Obsessed with Karma To Burn and The Atomic Bitchwax as direct support. It was the first full tour of The Obsessed since 2012. The tour was presented by CVLT Nation.

Background

In February of 2016 Wino announced that Spirit Caravan was going to become The Obsessed after finding new drummer Brian Constantino. Eventually in March 2016 ahead of their planned appearance at The Maryland Doom Fest a full tour of the United States was announced, with the first date of the tour being on Friday the 13th (May 13, 2016) at the Black Cat in Washington, D.C. Some Spirit Caravan songs are being worked into the setlist along with two new songs in "Be the Night" and "Sacred".

Between May 16th and 18th, Atomic Bitchwax bassist/vocalist Chris Kosnik broke his arm, thus on May 19th The Atomic Bitchwax announced they were forced to cancel their appearances on the tour.
