Z5[g[Q  
Glasgow's Ally Kerr does a nice line in pop songs and "Off the B\+uRiD8w  
Radar" provides us with the opportunity to enjoy 12 more of }`]Et99Q5  
his little pop masterpieces. Am#Pa,g  
^O&&QRH~w  
Opening the album is "Could Have Been a Contender" - all Xl E0oN~{  
polished pop perfection that brings back memories of the J#\oc@  
jaunty hits of the Housemartins and their catalogue of 8I0G%hD  
intelligent and catchy songs. "I Think I'm Bleeding" has an &a'LOq+r'  
underlying country flavour to it. Whilst once again presented 3]kN9n{  
as a happy little song, there is more than a touch of rGay~\  
bitterness in his words. Funnily enough, the rather twee "The imyfki $B  
Toothbrush Song" would also make a quality country song due to ;&MnPFmq  
its dry lyrics even if a cowboy would feel the need to d"thM  
accompany such emotions with bourbon rather than sparkling 9G4os !x)  
mineral water. 6#HnA"I2n  
D H:9iX'  
The pace picks up with the title track "Off the Radar" that ;Pvnhy  
truly highlights Mr Kerr's pop sensibilities and offsets his V OT9cP^6  
laidback vocal delivery with some spirited guitar. Loves lost NWj4U3x  
and won (mostly lost though? and a sense of reflection on his c)c_Qv  
younger years seem a common theme to the songs in this album /9| 2uw`  
and, indeed, regret is once more evident in "Is It Too Late to IEWl I  
Work for NASA" even if it is disguised here with wry humour. |I3&a=,  
If Bluesbunny closes his eyes, on "Mystery Star" Ally Kerr ACF_;4%&  
seems to transform himself into Edinburgh master popsters <ILi38%Y  
Dropkick and there are certainly worse things to be than that. >"Zn# FY  
If Bluesbunny had to pick a favourite track, it would probably id]}10  
be "Amorino" evoking, as it does, the melancholic pleasures of Uh^j ;s\y  
heartbreak. @== "$uRw  
3w! NTvp  
The thing that impresses most about this album is the songs _V` QvnT}  
themselves. Well crafted and melodic with sharp and observant @"m+9ZY  
lyrics, they are however presented as a whole lot fluffier ' @"A{mrE  
than they actually are. It must be Ally Kerr's choice to do so F0'8n6zj  
but it does seem that he is deliberately avoiding giving any Qd}h:U^  
kind of offense. Maybe he never gets angry himself - although K:Z|# i-  
his words suggest otherwise -but Bluesbunny feels that he is *k0;R[IAV  
doing his own songs a disservice here by sprinkling an inch of mHNqzdaa  
icing sugar on everything. It is not necessary for everything VGOdJ|2]Wr  
in life to have a cherry on top for it to be appetising. ?y^ ix+ M  
]Y f8  
Overall, this is a happy, upbeat album that is just a bit too M ED_#OS  
polite and well mannered to try and force itself upon your +sXnC\  
affections. The production and arrangements are smoother than ^k!u  
your average Starbuck's decaf latte but it is perhaps fair qtp-w\#S$  
comment to say that the omnipresent sugar coating will suit lsVg'k/Z!  
his fans. However, and maybe this is a reviewer thing, a bit x8&~  
of fire and even some unpredictability would have been [8[`V)b  
welcome. Then again, the Bluesbunny was always a quadruple ET|4a(x  
espresso kind of guy. u6*mHkM

Ally Kerr是来自苏格兰的Indie pop乐队(也是主唱的名字),融合了苏格兰传统民谣和清新独立流行风格,延续了Indie一贯的清新吉他风格。悦耳而淳朴,凄美而哀伤,有那么一丝丝迷惘,当你聆听Calling Out To You这张专辑的时候这一类的形容词可能会脱口而出。这样悦耳动听的音乐出自格拉斯哥唱作人Ally Kerr之手。继Belle & Sebastian, Camera Obscura 之后,苏格兰的indie 风暴就从未停止过,如今Ally Kerr继续着他们的征程。他不仅继承苏格兰indie pop团惯有的风格,从Ally Kerr身上,我们还能够体会到那种异乎寻常的与众不同的气质。在苏格兰,人们将他称之为“最富生趣和最创造性的音乐家”。2004年Ally Kerr在日本发行唱片,是真正为了追求梦想的音乐人。而后为TV动画《虫师》演唱的OP"The Sore Feet Song",使Ally Kerr为更多的人所熟知。(来自网络) 6)9X+U@
