Die Antwoord have had a busy year, releasing the Suck on This mixtape in May before a string of singles from their new LP, Mount Ninja and Da Nice Time Kid. Today, they’ve shared another new track from the record, the DJ Muggs-produced “Fat Faded Fuck Face,” which you can hear below. This afternoon, news also broke of the band’s apparently imminent demise: According to Exclaim!, Ninja said the band will split in September 2017. “Die Antwoord dies on that day,” Ninja said. “It’s all over. I feel beautiful about it. I’m not scared of the end. I’m a Ninja. I'm not scared of death.”
They’ll bow out with an exhibition at Cape Town’s Museum of Contemporary Modern Art Africa, followed by their own movie, South African Ninja, according to Exclaim! “It’s a South African gangster film that has African ninjas in it,” Ninja told Exclaim! “Everything in the film is fictitious, like a regular movie, but it's hard and raw, and everything has some parallel to our lives, so it's got a surreal connection to everything.”
