Otep Keeps Delivering Feb 03, 2010 This album is great. Although it isn't as heavy as The Ascension it does have the unique guitar riffs and emotional singing/screaming that Otep is best known for. There are a couple songs that remind me of Sevas Tra and House of Secrets and the rest sound more like what's on The Ascension. One or two more songs would have been nice.
Bottom line is, if you love Otep then you'll love this album.
liked it Jan 12, 2010 i thought it was a good album if i lost it i would buy it again.

One of the most solid albums of recent Heavy Metal Dec 03, 2009 Held in its own place this is an album that thrums with energy and power. It keeps the dredged emotional tatter that Otep is known for (Where the River Ends, Head of Medusa, I Remember) and introduces a new vigor for an ageing band with polished, anthemic, and accessible tracks ( Rise & Smash). My particular favorite, Numb and Dumb, is lyrically solid and has fun guitar shreds, vocals that pierce and shake, and drums that power through beautifully the entire track.
You'll find the entire album filled to the brim with interesting directions, and really heavy guitar (Unveiled sticks out in my mind) that resonate differently on every listen. Hell, even the ballad "Ur a WMN Now" is even kind of cute - which is an abruptly ended cuteness when Serv Asat pounds through the speakers. There is that air of dismal rage, despair, strength, and wretch guttural anguish... that sense of release... thats laced into the production and makes it its own endeavor.
Needless to say, not a disappointment in the least. I hope to see them live.

First OTEP Album Nov 04, 2009 I was very impressed with this album. I had not heard of her prior to about 1 month ago, heard about her through Victory Medal, and honestly a great album. Music is raw, original, and well composed. Lyrics maybe a little more subversive than I like (I am a suit), but definitely worth getting.

awesome c.d. Oct 30, 2009 I would say that this is one of the most awesome c.d.s I have bought in a long time. And the female singer can belt it out like no other. I am very satisified with my purchase.
