Trevor Giuliani's debut album, Subcontrario (In Stereo) was released July 21st and mixes folksy undertones (think Andrew Bird, Sufjan Stevens, Jens Lenkman) with interesting and sometimes surprising musical arrangements, differentiating himself from the typical singer-songwriter label. Moods go from fumbling and awkward to stark, ironic and deliberately sad over its fifty minutes with tones that hang together on Giuliani's melancholic, effortless baritone voice.
"Nubian Forest"
"'Nubian Forest' is an allegory of the relationship between society/culture and Spirit. We are fumbling through the trees, hardly aware that there are roots, and that we are fruit. We turn to God when it is convenient, and conversely deny Her when it is convenient. Yet despite these flippant desires, He is always there, ever shining." (Trevor Giuliani)
