To accompany the announcement of their next, no doubt batshit crazy, album, South Africa’s strangest export Die Antwoord have released a batshit crazy video for lead single ‘Pitbull Terrier’. It’s visceral, very literal and here are some first impressions:
(0:08) Holy shit, is Ninja an anthropomorphic pitbull?
(0:41) Holy shit, is that (Miami club sensation) Pitbull getting his jugular torn out? (Yes it is. Well an impersonator, at least.)
(1:09) Where do you go next if you’re Die Antwoord? At some point surely they’ll exhaust all the weirdness in the streets of Cape Town. Next stop: normcore?
(2:23) Is Yolandi channeling Wes Borland of Limp Bizkit fame/notoriety?
(4:19) Holy shit, does the YouTube page have a credits section? (It sure does. Props to Alexander Wang, Faith47 and ‘MUMSY’.)
New album DONKER MAG is out on May 30 through Zef Recordz. (So zef.)
