Details: Product Description Urban, Desbois Amazon.ca As his name suggests, Urbain Desbois is a sort of modern-day Robin Hood who, with his unbridled ditties, strives to denounce injustice. Rather than stealing from the rich, he steals “quotes from everyone” to create, on this first album, My house works harder than me, amazing songs, mix of rock, swing, blues and even country. A true artist of the pun, Desbois lingers to describe everyday life in texts which, although rigorously worked, avoid any pretension. In “Le Pain”, the misery of work (“another day, another pain”) is depicted with a skilful gaze, where humor always defuses gravity: “food my dear Weston”. Album as original as sympathetic with its deliberately muddled sounds, My House Works More Than Me brings together nearly 20 songs that are all worth listening to. -- Nicolas Houle
