L'homme est un animal comme les autres
By C.A.M.

With his album «L’homme est un animal comme les autres», C.A.M. (Chanteur d’Amour et de Merde) offers us twelve ferocious and grainy tracks that seem to emerge from a film by Ken Loach in which Arno, the Pogues and Hubert Félix Thiéfaine share a meal. He uses the simple words of the one who makes his own cinema and walks his unstoppable mouth and his guitar over the tiles of the roofs. This is a rocky pamphlet with juicy music served by a scarring sound. Is there a more successful path for the emancipation of humans than the song which does not fit into any canvas, which is sung by the roadsides, around makeshift braziers or friendly tables, but which catches the eye for good. And then that unique, recognizable voice that takes your breath away after grating the Parmesan.
C.A.M is Christian Vandenbroeck. From the earliest age, he liked the French song, listened to singers of love and shit on the radio. Then came punk, hard, rock, rap, new wave ... all these influences that can be found in his songs. C.A.M started writing very late. He wandered between truant and street school, where popular education teaches its best lessons. Working as a roofing carpenter, he did not have time, but the desire was there, and it was at the age of 44 that he began jazz academy, singing lessons and then guitar. He released his first album in 2019 (Chansons d’Amour et de Merde).
