It appears Otep‘s latest album, “The God Slayer,“ may be her last. During an interview with Belgian Jasper, the vocalist revealed that she is unsure if she will make a follow-up.
Otep said the following:
“Well, I think you really have to love music, you have to love creating music and you have to love performing music to be in the industry of music. And since my last album, a lot of things have happened in my personal life — my oldest brother died, everybody worldwide had the big plague where we couldn’t trust the air we breathe.
So there was a lot going on at the time, and we were in quarantine here in the States and this label reached out to me and said, ‘Hey, would you like to do a cover album?’ I thought, ‘Uh, do I really?’ And then I’m thinking, ‘Okay, it’s quarantine. Nothing’s open. Nothing’s happening. I’m in the house. Why not?’
It just kind of came back to that. I missed it. I missed creating music and I missed that outlet. And I missed performing. Because I hadn’t played on U.S. soil since 2018. And so that’s what brought me back around. In symbolic terms, nine is the last single digit. So it is the last; it represents the last. I don’t know if I’ll make another record. But I had a really marvelous time creating this one with the people that I worked with… I mean, to me, this is probably my favorite sounding album, sonically. And I’ve been booming it in my car.”
