The ‘band’, consisting of Yo-landi Vi$$er, Ninja, and DJ Hi-Tek, broke through in 2010 with their debut $O$, which repeatedly raised the question: “Are they serious?”
They were, to a certain extent. Yo-Landi and Ninja were previously involved in satirical hip-hop projects and Die Antwoord was the most recent shock group, one that actually drew genuine fans.
After controversial viral videos and over-the-top live shows (including a slot on last year’s Big Day Out), the group return with album number two: Ten$ion.
To prepare, they’ve released a gory, creepy album teaser trailer, where Yo-Landi tears out and eats Ninja’s heart while both are costumed as white demons.
Likely to be Not Safe For Work. Ten$ion will be released on February 7.
