Aussie punk band Amyl and the Sniffers drop uncensored version of new music video... complete with FULL FRONTAL nudity

As a lifestyle expert with extensive experience in the arts and entertainment industry, I find Amyl and the Sniffers‘ latest music video for ‘Jerkin” both bold and empowering. The band’s unapologetic approach to body positivity is a breath of fresh air, challenging societal norms and encouraging open conversations about human bodies.


The Australian punk group, Amyl and the Sniffers, released an explicit music video for their newest single titled “Jerkin’.

An edited version of the video can be found on YouTube, while the artists themselves have published an unedited, explicit version on their official site, containing numerous instances of full-frontal nudity.

The video opens with a disclaimer, informing viewers that its intent is not for entertainment or titillation, but instead, it aims to encourage body positivity.

 ‘This video contains nudity and adult themes,’ the warning began.

This material is designed primarily for creative exploration and promoting a positive body image, rather than for the purpose of sexual satisfaction.

The video then shows firebrand frontwoman Amy Taylor belting out the tune which contains such lines as: ‘You’re a dumb c**t, you’re an a**ehole, every time you talk you mumble, grumble.’

Surrounded on either side are her bandmates Bryce Wilson, Declan Martens, and Gus Romer. These musicians are accompanied by a mix of male and female models who progressively remove their clothing in time with the music.

On their official site, director John Angus Stewart expressed his puzzlement over the discomfort some individuals show towards exposed bodies.

He stated, ‘The strange response that a female genitalia or male genitalia can provoke is utterly peculiar.’ Later, Amy told him, “In an ideal world, I wouldn’t need to wear clothes at all.”‘

He continued: ‘It’s the context we stamp onto our sex organs that makes them innately “offensive.” This is why we wanted to strip away the artifice and examine the body in an open, conversational way.’

The director added that the models were allowed to dictate the pace of the shoot.

He stated that we [the production team] allow the project to develop authentically, progressing from idea to crew assembly to casting. By doing so, we give our subjects the freedom to contribute according to their ease and comfort during each filming session.

As we crafted it, we discovered its nature, a method that’s quite different from my usual practice where I already have a clear understanding beforehand.

As a committed follower, I found that since this concept was deeply rooted in individual personalities, it seemed incongruous to approach it differently.

He concluded by saying that the entire production walked away from the shoot with a need to be ‘less prudish.’ 

The statement reads: ‘Just like how listening to an Amyl song alters my viewpoint, I aspire to transform myself in a similar manner.’

I believe we all left the event feeling a strong urge to be more open-minded and care less about what others might think.

It’s not the first time an Aussie band has used nudity to augment a tune, either.

For the video of their 2024 song “I Can’t Lose You,” Australian dance-pop group Confidence Man decided to bare all.

The clip features totally naked singers Janet Planet (aka Grace Stephenson) and Sugar Bones (real name Aidan Moore) perform the song in a helicopter flying above London.

The band performed the song naked which music historian Ian McFarlane said prompted ‘scores of irate callers to jam the ABC switchboard for 30 minutes.’
