The soft, psych-rock tone of Umbrella Mistress is effortless to Omar Rodriguez-Lopez, as lazy keyboard leads illuminate the title track.
The gentle melancholy chorus of Houses Full Of Hurt captivates, setting the tone for the lonesome lament of Eastern Promises, where faint bongo rhythms carry underneath, leading into rock'n'roll doozy Blood Count. Through Wires is a slow burning, vocally driven piece that culminates in a wild Hendrix-esque guitar solo. Tell Me What I Did Wrong is a thoughtfully alluring arrangement while Winters Gone is a catchy psych-rock cut before vintage feeling closer Diamond Teeth.
