Otep

Double red colored vinyl LP pressing. Anniversary edition. Produced by Ulrich Wild (Pantera, Deftones, Static-X), the cinematic album transports listeners on an ominous journey, as a dynamic blend of instrumentation (including the band's first and only use of drum programming) and haunting lyricism evoke it's namesake's tortured soul. Among the most popular tracks is "Apex Predator," a twisted chant, in which Hydra becomes enraptured with one of her victims. As the song progresses, she begins to question her sanity-and whether the woman she captured exists at all. Released as a single, the song was accompanied by a provocative visual, filmed at an abandoned hospital and directed by P.R. Brown (The Smashing Pumpkins, Evanescence, Slipknot).
