Brad Paisley has talent for more than just churning out chart-topping country songs. He’s got a bit of an artist’s streak in him, judging by his latest video. “Crushin’ It,” an anthem for kicking back with a cold one on the weekends, was animated entirely by Paisley himself.

In the clip, Paisley depicts himself and fellow country superstars including Blake Shelton, Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban as the “Agents of Crush,” an Avengers-like superhero team out to save the world from—seriously—giant killer beer cans.

Paisley’s animation skills might not get him a job for Pixar but there is definitely an early South Park sensibility to the video, which is high praise in its own right.
