Until the Hunter is the band's first studio album since Through the Devil Softly (2009)
The album's title is derived from an old African proverb, "Until the lions have their own historians, the history of the hunt will always glorify the hunter." "Into the Trees" is the album's first song. It is a nine-minute long, drone-based alternative rock song. It begins with a predominantly featured Philicorda organ, performed by Sandoval, which is then followed by Ó Cíosóig's psychedelic-influenced drum work. It was one of the first songs the two recorded for Until the Hunter, and was written and recorded during a single session at the Martello Towers. Sandoval has described it as her favorite track on the album, and has expressed interest in releasing its original demo recording, which far exceeds the nine-minute duration of the album version. Several guest musicians then contributed to the track at later recording sessions in Berkeley, including Mariee Sioux, who features as a backing vocalist on the song's latter half. As it progresses, Michael Masley's distinctive instrumentation becomes more prominent.
The record contains several songs which have been compared to some of Sandoval's previous work with Mazzy Star. "The Peasant" has been compared to the band's 1994 single "Fade into You", and is the only song on the album to be composed solely by Sandoval. A review for Uncut said that the album's sixth track, "Treasure", is evocative of the material found on So Tonight That I Might See (1993), describing it as "both utterly wasted and desolately beautiful, [it] ends with a glorious slow fade, like a seaside sunset." Elsewhere, Until the Hunter contains material which has been ascribed to a diverse array of musical styles. "A Wonderful Seed" has been likened to a sea shanty, and "Let Me Get There" was described as "all flickering soul licks, steamy organ and sassy vocal trade-offs." The track is a seven-minute long duet with Kurt Vile, although its lyrics were written solely by Sandoval. "Day Disguise" is a sparse, nursery rhyme-like mid-tempo ballad, which features a pedal steel guitar prominently in its instrumentation. The distinctive percussion found on "The Hiking Song" is the sound of Ó Cíosóig throwing joss sticks into a wooden box. "Isn't It True" is the most uptempo track on the album, and is one of the fastest songs in Sandoval's entire discography, with a BPM of 170. Album closer "Liquid Lady" is a psychedelic soul and blues-influenced rock song, with a 3
4 time signature.
