# Die Antwoord bring the TEN$ION
Die Antwoord are releasing some pent up TEN$ION
on their third album which will be released this February. The
South African trio of **Ninja**,**Yo-Landi Vi\$$er** and **DJ Hi-Tek**
are something of an anomaly -- when they first appeared they were seen
as the real thing, then the penny dropped on some of their more
outlandish claims and a bit of digging revealed them then a
post-everything in-joke. Possibly. No one is actually that sure.
Accepted as a conceptual 23rd century hip-hop group, complete with alter
ego's that purposely blur the lines between fact and fiction, whichever
way you look at it, they have a visual and musical style that is
bordering on the unique. Even if it is an unsettling, nervous twitch
inducing uniqueness. You either like them, or you want to burn down Vice
magazine.
Check out the video for 'FOK JULLE NAAIERS' below. A demented take on
what a **[Godley & Creme][1]{: target="_blank"}** Die Antwoord video
might look like.
Downtown / Cooperative Music will release TEN$ION on 02.02.2012.
