Umbersound’s new album »Tracks From The Slither« expands further into psychological terrain, exploring avoidance, internal decay, and the consequences of neglecting one’s inner self. Much of the album was captured in single takes, prioritizing instinct over precision and allowing each moment to exist as it happened.

The sound evokes the feeling of discovering a lost late reel buried in a vault – something unstable, and almost cursed. That sense of an unearthed presence runs throughout the album. Performance-wise, »Tracks From The Slither« strips away the extra bells and whistles. Much of the material was captured in single takes, prioritizing instinct over precision. The goal was not perfection, but directness – committing fully to each moment as it happened.

Recorded and mixed by Joe D’Angelo. Mastered by Acle Kahney at 4Dsounds. Album Cover by James Hutton.
