Glasgow's Ally Kerr does a nice line in pop songs and "Off the fwiP3*j+Nn  
Radar" provides us with the opportunity to enjoy 12 more of nEPTTp+B  
his little pop masterpieces. Uu52uR  
>_\[C?8  
Opening the album is "Could Have Been a Contender" - all MMUlA$*t  
polished pop perfection that brings back memories of the (tX)r4VU  
jaunty hits of the Housemartins and their catalogue of M%Ksyr9  
intelligent and catchy songs. "I Think I'm Bleeding" has an kv6nVlI)B  
underlying country flavour to it. Whilst once again presented !{{gL=_@  
as a happy little song, there is more than a touch of T"aE]4_  
bitterness in his words. Funnily enough, the rather twee "The hsT&c|  
Toothbrush Song" would also make a quality country song due to \*Yr&Lm  
its dry lyrics even if a cowboy would feel the need to Yg,;l-1  
accompany such emotions with bourbon rather than sparkling d S'J@e=#  
mineral water. >x3lA0m

The pace picks up with the title track "Off the Radar" that N'-[>w7vK2  
truly highlights Mr Kerr's pop sensibilities and offsets his Yufj y=!  
laidback vocal delivery with some spirited guitar. Loves lost !nvg:$.&  
and won (mostly lost though? and a sense of reflection on his ,Si{]y  
younger years seem a common theme to the songs in this album jd,i =P%  
and, indeed, regret is once more evident in "Is It Too Late to lG Bg8/[  
Work for NASA" even if it is disguised here with wry humour. 9(nq 4 HvI  
If Bluesbunny closes his eyes, on "Mystery Star" Ally Kerr N_S~&(I|  
seems to transform himself into Edinburgh master popsters ."=%]l 0  
Dropkick and there are certainly worse things to be than that. xb<|m2<)H  
If Bluesbunny had to pick a favourite track, it would probably "M!m-]  
be "Amorino" evoking, as it does, the melancholic pleasures of dS3\P5D.*c  
heartbreak. =*jFaj  
,a,2I  
The thing that impresses most about this album is the songs aK95&Jyw&  
themselves. Well crafted and melodic with sharp and observant y`j=(|DV  
lyrics, they are however presented as a whole lot fluffier <R;wa@a>  
than they actually are. It must be Ally Kerr's choice to do so z<mN-1PM7&  
but it does seem that he is deliberately avoiding giving any -{k8^o7$  
kind of offense. Maybe he never gets angry himself - although <Q/)SN6_E  
his words suggest otherwise -but Bluesbunny feels that he is K%+4M#jj5  
doing his own songs a disservice here by sprinkling an inch of .=TXi<8Brw  
icing sugar on everything. It is not necessary for everything "mQcc }8  
in life to have a cherry on top for it to be appetising. Z#-N$%^F  
Xi) ;dcNJ  
Overall, this is a happy, upbeat album that is just a bit too ;"x+V gS'  
polite and well mannered to try and force itself upon your Qd kus 214  
affections. The production and arrangements are smoother than BK+P  
your average Starbuck's decaf latte but it is perhaps fair * 7Ov.v%  
comment to say that the omnipresent sugar coating will suit 2#R$-* ;#  
his fans. However, and maybe this is a reviewer thing, a bit A1-,b.Ni  
of fire and even some unpredictability would have been 8 |=C/k  
welcome. Then again, the Bluesbunny was always a quadruple ; Z7!BU  
espresso kind of guy. 1Ub=RyB

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) 7$Z_'GJ]1C
