Anna Nalick

Anna Nalick不错，不过美国真的不缺她这样的类型。但是，就像他们钟爱鸡腿汉堡一样，她会流行开来。20岁的女生，虽然吃汉堡长大让她显得过于成熟，但这确实是一个年轻的新人在发表第一张专辑。个人具备的创作和演唱才华，让她获得不少的称赞，虽然不是一边倒的惊叹。在某些转音和细微的鼻音处，她会贴近Alanis Morisette，什么都好，只是差了Alanis Morisette当年首发专辑的那点药力，那点冲劲，那点猛烈。但是这个加州女歌手的专辑，还是很值得去听一下，有着动听的旋律，一点都不稚嫩的声线，与那些音乐界动不动就深刻得让人头疼的思想家相比，我选择这个———这种不求上进的态度，有点像加菲。
兼收并蓄用多了，容易招致一些争议。Anna Nalick的音乐对于偏好摇滚的耳朵，显得柔和了一些；而对于流行的口味，又似乎吞咽起来让他们的腮帮子有点吃力。如果你之前对Michelle Branch、Liz Phair还都相当喜爱的话，她应该是你要的。她声音的温度明显比Sarah McLachlan高，而某些慢歌有相当的纯度却不像Norah Jones那么让人纳闷。
在Anna Nalick的专辑里不只讲到情爱神伤，也会提示生活与信念。《InMyHead》描述了在白日梦里寻求解脱的心情。《Bleed》则是专辑里相对增加摇滚力度的作品，AnnaNalick的声音在放开和收敛的时候差别不小，这部分因素将来可以把她引向两个方向———要么就是像全世界的优秀女歌手却唯独不像自己，要么就是找到真正应该强化的部分，让我们可以在第一时间辨认出她的声音和音乐。
《ConsiderThis》是专辑里的一首执拗而有趣的摇滚歌曲，也属于比较草根的作业，音乐是好听的。而整张专辑有一个比较尴尬的地方就是：听《Satellite》像听到Jewel；听《IntheRough》又像听到AndreaCorr；中板的《Citadel》似乎又有加拿大的摇滚女歌手FionaApple的痕迹。所以一定程度上，她给自己出了个难题，《WreckoftheDay》对于新人来讲是足以获得好评的一张作品，但是下一张如果没有明显地走出来的话，就会成为流行连锁企业里看不出特色的一家普通加盟店。
