NAKAMA / WORST GENERATION – 17.11.2017






5 generations – 1 world

Socrates said, some 2000 years ago: «The children nowadays love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise».

In today’s western world lives a total of 5 historically distinguishable generations. The track titles on Nakama’s 4th album is named after them: The Lucky Few, Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials and Plurals. Zooming out in both time and space and looking at the current state of the world these five generations must truly be the «Worst Generation» ever in human history. They are all part of- and have contributed to the current state of affairs. Paradoxically, new generations also bring with them a sense of hope and change, and maybe when we look back again 100 years from now this current amass of generation might turn out to be the best one?! 

Worst Generation is Nakama’s first album with new member Agnes Hvizdalek. It is also their first fully improvised album, recorded live in Amann Studio in Vienna as part of their 2017 Europe tour 




Releases officially on the 17th of November 2017
