It’s one thing when our perception of the 1980s comes from professional, over-zealous music videos. But when a home-grown, self-made video masterpiece comes to our attention, the result is a magical mix of cheese factor and all-around awesomeness.

The now defunct Eta Delta chapter of the Chi Phi fraternity at the University of Southern California performed a totally 80stastic song in hopes of luring potential pledges into their acid wash-infused ranks—and then filmed it. Somehow, the film wiggled its way onto YouTube for our own personal enjoyment.

Filmed in March of 1988 (KittKat would not be born for two more months!) the pseudo music video features a collection of the most fratastic individuals dancing around, singing the praises of Everclear and The Row. (There’s even a special appearance by the 9-0, circa 1988. Check it out in all it’s sketchy glory!)

The best part about the video, though, is its blatant 1980s editing, complete with pixelization, inverted colors, and shaky camera moves. But it’s not enough to talk about it…Just watch and be amazed.
