Imbeciles & the Poison Umbrella @ Film Palace Fest 2010
They call their sound "poison umbrella music"! London based Brit-Bulgarian electro-punk-hop outfit Imbeciles were born towards the end of 2003 out of the core of seminal Bulgarian alternative band Babyface Clan, who's enthralling live performances and exuberant 2001 album "Romantica" were lauded in their homeland, gaining them a dedicated following and a record number of music award nominations, as they toured Europe, supporting bands like Asian Dub Foundation, Stereo MCs, Dead Kennedys and Transglobal Underground. While that band had its period of glory and rampage, guitarist Ivo and frontman Nasso (who grew up in London) were plotting a fresh, different sound and thus recruited drummer Rocco (now replaced by Londoner Dave Andrews) to embark on a new adventure, which began with a support slot for Ladytron and would eventually lead them to Britain's capital - the scene of political dissident Georgi Markov's mysterious poison umbrella murder back in 1978.
