about

"Smells Like Teen Spirits" served as an anthem for many of Generation X, who found themselves confused and uncertain about the world around them. Still, this song couldn’t be more relevant today. That's why we decided to cover and rearrange the most famous song by Nirvana. The nihilist vibe and the apathetic and cynical mood still have as big an impact on today's generation as 32 years ago. Social and mass media show us the World as a horror movie ready to explode: war, pollution, violence, economic crisis and climate change collide with loss of values, lack of prospects and emptiness by today’s youth culture. In an upside-down World with no social references, this song is still found today as the anthem for the New Generation. This is our tribute.

lyrics

Load up on guns, bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over-bored and self-assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word

Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid, and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido
Yeah

I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift, I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid, and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido
Yeah

And I forget, just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it's hard to find
Oh well, whatever, never mind
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid, and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido
A denial

Energetic music and haunted lyrics: this is what defined WorldPlan the most. The band met in 2018. Mood and ideas connected the band, deciding to use music as a filter for their emotions. So, they came out with their first EP "Easyli Rhetieving" in 2019. The following year, WorldPlan wrote new haunted stuff, increasing in song writing. That's how their first LP "Jukai" came out, in July, 2022. ... more
