Otep

Musical Group

American nu metal band led by vocalist Otep Shamaya; released the EP Jihad (2001) and the full-length Sevas Tra (2002).

The review highlights strong influences from Korn and Slipknot, praises Otep Shamaya's diverse vocal style, and notes that the band name is an anagram of 'poet' and the album title Sevas Tra is 'art saves' reversed.

The available review praises Otep's 2002 full-length Sevas Tra as a powerful, uncompromising entry in the nu-metal scene. It highlights Otep Shamaya's impressive and diverse vocal style and notes strong influences from Korn and Slipknot. Best tracks named include "Blood Pigs", "My Confession", "Possession" and "Jonestown Tea". The review also points out wordplay in the band's and album's names.

For:Fans of nu-metal and heavy alternative metal, especially listeners who like Korn and Slipknot.

 After their debut in 2001 with the EP "Jihad", the Californians Otep released "Sevas Tra", their first official full-length, in 2002, a period when the nu-metal scene (which is no longer so 'nu') is flooded with bands as undeservedly famous as they are insipid (Linkin Park, Hoobastank, Alien Ant Farm ...).
