Australian punk band Amil and the Sniffers have released the X-rated clip for their latest single Jerkin'.
A censored version of the clip is available on YouTube, but the band took to their website to upload an uncensored and unrestricted version that features a barrage of frontal Nirvana.
The video begins with a content warning, telling viewers that the purpose of the clip is not to titillate, but to promote body positivity.
“This video contains nudity and adult themes,” the warning began.
“The content is aimed at artistic expression and body positivity, not sexual gratification.”
The video features Firebrand frontwoman Amy Taylor singing the tune, which includes lyrics such as: “You're a dumbass, you're a dumbass, mumble, mumble every time you talk.”
He is joined by bandmates Bryce Wilson, Declan Martens and Gus Romer, who are joined by a lineup of male and female models who gradually narrow down to the song.
In a statement on the band's website, director John Angus Stewart said he was “disturbed” by the crime some people commit by stripping.

'We learned what it was as we developed it, which is basically the opposite approach to what I'm used to.
But since the idea was driven by people's personalities, it didn't seem right to do it the other way around. '
He concluded by saying that the entire production was pulled from filming to make it “less melancholic.”
“I want to change the way Ameel's song changes one's perspective,” the statement read.
He is accompanied by his bandmates Bryce Wilson, Declan Martens and Gus Roemer, who are joined by a series of male and female models who sing the song.

Naked singers Janet Planet (Grace Stephenson) and Sugar Bones (real name Aidan Moore) perform the song in a helicopter flying over London.
The band performed the song naked, which, according to music historian Ian McFarlane, “incited several angry people to lock down the ABC switchboard for 30 minutes.”
