The Doom Metal entity Umbersound, driven by the singular vision of Joe D’Angelo, returns with a new chapter of sonic descent: the forthcoming album “Tracks From The Slither.” Continuing a yearly release cycle, the record marks a shift toward a raw, analog-driven process, pushing the project further into a heavier sonic territory.
Leading the release is the single “It Still Breathes,” a meditation on what lingers beneath the surface. Built on crushing riffs and haunted melodic passages, the track captures the persistence of buried thought, something ignored but never gone. Recorded mostly through analog tape and driven by saturated textures, the sound carries a physical weight where imperfection and spontaneity become part of the composition itself.
Umbersound remains rooted in emotional gravity, while “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 title-track “Tracks From The Slither” deals with warped authority and fractured identity. “The Hands That Built Beauty” shows what time does when nothing is confronted. “Foundations Of Strife” lets anxiety hang in the air, slow and unavoidable. “My God, It’s Coming From The Ocean” moves into myth, where devotion does not offer protection but returns consequence, echoing the warnings found in the Cthulhu Mythos. At the center, “It Still Breathes” embodies the album’s core: what is buried does not disappear, it remains, shaping everything from beneath.

With “Tracks From The Slither,” Umbersound moves beyond atmosphere. These are not songs of escape, but of confrontation. Umbersound, the NYC-based project of Joe D’Angelo of Grey Skies Fallen, continues to define a sound built on heaviness, introspection, and emotional precision.
