Watch The Smith Street Band's Beautiful Animated Video for "I Scare Myself Sometimes"

See the Aussie gruff-punks get sentimental.

The Smith Street Band’s “I Scare Myself Sometimes” has a very lullaby-esque quality to it. A collaboration with Lucy Wilson of The Sugarcanes, it is a tale of love and heartache and self-destruction, and also, like, moon people with giant moon tubes and stuff. The song, which is off their forthcoming seven-inch, shows that underneath their gruff-punk style of anthemic pub rock, the Aussies have a side to them that is more pensive and thoughtful. See them flex their feelings in this Celeste Potter-animated video and have a real moment with yourself.
