The musicians hail from Copenhagen, Denmark and have been recycling hit songs with recyclable bottles for years. Among their other covers are Call Me Maybe" and "Party Rock Anthem". Band member Martin Handberg recently explained to the New York's Daily News that the group began at a college party which was in need of some musical entertainment, so they turned to the pile of empty bottles in the room.

"It was a really boring party," Handberg told the newspaper Monday. "We were all into music so we tried to see if we could play using the bottles."

Filmed in a church for better audio quality, The "Billie Jean" video unveils the group's new technique called the "double bottle."
