Glasgow's Ally Kerr does a nice line in pop songs and "Off the 8fZ\})t  
Radar" provides us with the opportunity to enjoy 12 more of >Li ~Og@  
his little pop masterpieces. ygT,I+7\  
ZLo3 0*  
Opening the album is "Could Have Been a Contender" - all TC J\@|yw  
polished pop perfection that brings back memories of the e|]g ?!  
jaunty hits of the Housemartins and their catalogue of Z1OX9]##r  
intelligent and catchy songs. "I Think I'm Bleeding" has an -XD\,y%zi  
underlying country flavour to it. Whilst once again presented M.H4ud  
as a happy little song, there is more than a touch of DHm$gk  
bitterness in his words. Funnily enough, the rather twee "The Vv6xVX  
Toothbrush Song" would also make a quality country song due to S.M< (  
its dry lyrics even if a cowboy would feel the need to !tX14O~B-  
accompany such emotions with bourbon rather than sparkling U3A>#EV  
mineral water. dp_J*8  
q;Qpd]H  
The pace picks up with the title track "Off the Radar" that $c  f?`k  
truly highlights Mr Kerr's pop sensibilities and offsets his ?CM,k0  
laidback vocal delivery with some spirited guitar. Loves lost Tcr&{S&o  
and won (mostly lost though? and a sense of reflection on his P,tN ;c  
younger years seem a common theme to the songs in this album o3}12i S  
and, indeed, regret is once more evident in "Is It Too Late to ~5]AXi'e~  
Work for NASA" even if it is disguised here with wry humour. VJuPC  
If Bluesbunny closes his eyes, on "Mystery Star" Ally Kerr b\H(Lq17  
seems to transform himself into Edinburgh master popsters V}@c5)(j  
Dropkick and there are certainly worse things to be than that. H$\?D+xlf  
If Bluesbunny had to pick a favourite track, it would probably QIo|t!7F  
be "Amorino" evoking, as it does, the melancholic pleasures of r_ r+&4n  
heartbreak. {`l]RIig  
f {^n<\Jh  
The thing that impresses most about this album is the songs @yobT,DXi  
themselves. Well crafted and melodic with sharp and observant :GGsQ n  
lyrics, they are however presented as a whole lot fluffier 0Wv9K~F  
than they actually are. It must be Ally Kerr's choice to do so LhV4 ^\+  
but it does seem that he is deliberately avoiding giving any +$8hTi,  
kind of offense. Maybe he never gets angry himself - although Omh(UHZBB  
his words suggest otherwise -but Bluesbunny feels that he is 6o{anHBB  
doing his own songs a disservice here by sprinkling an inch of VF 6@;5p  
icing sugar on everything. It is not necessary for everything ~){*XJw6  
in life to have a cherry on top for it to be appetising. /n:s9eq  
C \}m_`MR  
Overall, this is a happy, upbeat album that is just a bit too I5 [r-r  
polite and well mannered to try and force itself upon your w8@ Ok_fj  
affections. The production and arrangements are smoother than aY"qEH7]  
your average Starbuck's decaf latte but it is perhaps fair 9l(e:_`_  
comment to say that the omnipresent sugar coating will suit [KCh,'&  
his fans. However, and maybe this is a reviewer thing, a bit k*^.-v  
of fire and even some unpredictability would have been 9hLPo  
welcome. Then again, the Bluesbunny was always a quadruple '6K WobXm  
espresso kind of guy. 5*4P_q(AxD

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) {uw'7 d/
