But his own work stands apart from whatever those connections might award him. He offers up some more traditionally \"rock\" material with songs like \"Proud\" and \"Judge,\" but at the same time veers off into more exploratory territory. There's the shimmering dream pop of \"Witch\" and \"Alina,\" and the wild instrumental \"Horse.\" With those and everything in between you get the sense that Giannascoli is ready to try anything and everything. And he nearly always hits his mark. Fourteen tracks in all.
