It started in the year 2000. The poet met the musicians and the project Otep took his first breath. The first aim was Los Angeles. After taking over it, Otep continued its way to the Ozzfest 2000. And after that it came out ... carrying the signs of brutality and mysticism with deep, personal lyrics the Jihad Ep was fact...

With help from the producer Terry Date, in 2001 the full-length album was released. "Sevas Tra" was the next proof for the talent and creativity of Otep hidden behind its walls of aggression... Now the third portion of pure art decorated with energy and passion infects the thousands of Shadow Soldiers over the world...

After we opened the House Of Secrets ... after discovering the 12 brutal compositions hidden between its walls we were destroyed by the Abominations, the mixture of visions and sound, that Otep create in front of their fans is the last piece of art from the band for now... we can only wait and expect more brutal propaganda from our leaders.. LONG LIVE OTEP, LONG LIVE SHADOW SOLDIERS!!!!
