Invisible System's live performances at festivals and concerts in the UK, and Addis Ababa (Ethiopia), have been known to simulate, attack, relax, exhaust people from dancing, confuse, uplift and even frighten others!
With Dennis Wint as the main front man in the UK he has become known by the press as a cross between a Jamaican/African Johnny Rotten and a rasta preacher man for spirituality and social justice whilst being a live cannon.
From playing with bands like Dreadzone to playing the main stages at festivals across the UK, Invisible System have crossed dance, dub and reggae, rock, post-punk, acid and world music with similar shows taking place alongside their Ethiopian singers in Addis.
These recordings illustrate how Invisible System sound live. A much more intense and stripped down beast than some of their album track releases.
Put this on, turn up the stereo, feel the bass and drum beats pounding, brace for the impact of the vocals and guitars and dance to the synths. Invisible System.
