KlV:L 4a~  
Glasgow's Ally Kerr does a nice line in pop songs and "Off the !Z!g:II /  
Radar" provides us with the opportunity to enjoy 12 more of 1OLqL  
his little pop masterpieces. D\w h;r  
3f " %G\  
Opening the album is "Could Have Been a Contender" - all }8|[;Qa`y  
polished pop perfection that brings back memories of the @E( 7V(m/  
jaunty hits of the Housemartins and their catalogue of ]5~s "fnG  
intelligent and catchy songs. "I Think I'm Bleeding" has an LMi:%i%\  
underlying country flavour to it. Whilst once again presented >3 yk#U|7}  
as a happy little song, there is more than a touch of Zwcy4>8  
bitterness in his words. Funnily enough, the rather twee "The 73{'k K  
Toothbrush Song" would also make a quality country song due to Ol"3a|  
its dry lyrics even if a cowboy would feel the need to 7Dnp'* H  
accompany such emotions with bourbon rather than sparkling |qZ ko[W}=  
mineral water. oH0X<'  
h)~=Dm  
The pace picks up with the title track "Off the Radar" that PH"h n]  
truly highlights Mr Kerr's pop sensibilities and offsets his (-]r~Ol^  
laidback vocal delivery with some spirited guitar. Loves lost pa}*E  
and won (mostly lost though? and a sense of reflection on his KH\b_>wU2  
younger years seem a common theme to the songs in this album go+Q~NV   
and, indeed, regret is once more evident in "Is It Too Late to e8YMX&0%  
Work for NASA" even if it is disguised here with wry humour. ;8!Z5H  
If Bluesbunny closes his eyes, on "Mystery Star" Ally Kerr "V{yi!D{<  
seems to transform himself into Edinburgh master popsters XLMb=T~S  
Dropkick and there are certainly worse things to be than that. >]o}}KF?  
If Bluesbunny had to pick a favourite track, it would probably Y+ K|1r  
be "Amorino" evoking, as it does, the melancholic pleasures of u?s VcD[  
heartbreak. l L]y~u  
g$dsd^{O7  
The thing that impresses most about this album is the songs WyP W*  
themselves. Well crafted and melodic with sharp and observant s=?g\oR  
lyrics, they are however presented as a whole lot fluffier bc , p }  
than they actually are. It must be Ally Kerr's choice to do so *T0q|P~o%  
but it does seem that he is deliberately avoiding giving any wP,JjPUt  
kind of offense. Maybe he never gets angry himself - although Be+0NXLVy  
his words suggest otherwise -but Bluesbunny feels that he is O Fje+S  
doing his own songs a disservice here by sprinkling an inch of e.c3nKXZ q  
icing sugar on everything. It is not necessary for everything lI>SUsQFfm  
in life to have a cherry on top for it to be appetising. Wu)>U  
jY_T/233d  
Overall, this is a happy, upbeat album that is just a bit too Vb BPB5 $q  
polite and well mannered to try and force itself upon your Q]p(u\ *  
affections. The production and arrangements are smoother than vFEQ7 qI  
your average Starbuck's decaf latte but it is perhaps fair V`@>MOw^d  
comment to say that the omnipresent sugar coating will suit cyJG8f  
his fans. However, and maybe this is a reviewer thing, a bit :kfp_o+J  
of fire and even some unpredictability would have been Rb3V^;i  
welcome. Then again, the Bluesbunny was always a quadruple k%^lF?_0I  
espresso kind of guy. i*CZV|t US

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) 2k<;R':
