As woo-woo as it sounds, the invention of the smash room is a sign that the universe cares about our mental health. Local pop-punk quintet The Anxiety Attack recently took to iSmash Tampa to film the music video for “The 1% Of Germs Lysol Doesn’t Kill,” off of its year-old debut Decent.

Earlier this month, another music video for “Make Believe” (the first single off of its impending sophomore album) was released, which depicts the guys—having splattered themselves and a whole room with neon paint—performing the new part-melodic-part-screamo jam.

This homecoming gig is the penultimate date of a brief Florida summer tour, so you really have no excuse to not check the band off your bucket list by month’s end.

Tickets to see Anxiety Attack play the music hall at New World Tampa on Friday, May 30 are still available for $10.
