After listening to Black Sabbath under the influence of mushrooms, he was inspired to take his music in a different direction. After forming in 1993, Electric Wizard recorded their self-titled debut album, which was released in 1996. AllMusic editor Eduardo Rivadavia described the album as “impressive“ but considered Electric Wizards music to be “pretty standard doom fare for the time.“ Oborn was not happy with the recording of Electric Wizard, finding it lighter-sounding than they had wanted. “Come My Fanatics …“ was released in January 1997 on Rise Above Records and was produced by Rolf Startin, Mike Hurst and band member Jus Oborn. It was the group’s follow-up to their eponymous album “Electric Wizard“. Oborn described the release as a reaction to the music on the earlier album, which he had felt was not as heavy as he wanted the group to sound. The songs on “Come My Fanatics …“ were described by Lee Dorrian, Rise Above Records owner, as breaking from the traditional doom metal style, with an unpolished and chaotic approach. The thematic elements of the album draw from 1970s horror films, biker movies and the writings of H. P. Lovecraft; there are three songs about leaving Earth to avoid an impending environmental disaster. The album release was followed by a tour with the band Cathedral and positive reviews from heavy metal magazines Metal Hammer, Terrorizer and Kerrang!. “Come My Fanatics …“ continued to receive praise in retrospective reviews, with Terrorizer declaring it “the wake-up that the UK doom scene needed“ and Dorrian describing it as “the turning point of everything“. 00:00 Return trip 10:02 Wizard in black 18:16 Doom-Mantia 27:05 Ivixor B - Phase inducer 35:51 Son of nothing 42:36 Solarian 13 Jus Oborn – guitar, vocals Tim Bagshaw – bass Mark Greening – drums
