Chandra’s “We Want Our Planet Back” Ignites Eco-Conscious Rock Revival

Chandra Delivers Powerful Environmental Anthem “We Want Our Planet Back” with Promised Bi-Monthly Release Strategy

Chandra‘s newest song, “We Want Our Planet Back,” is a mix of activism and catchy pop-rock energy.

The Bristol-based group has made a protest song with a strong message that does not sacrifice music for meaning. Instead, they have combined the two into a powerful call for action that feels especially relevant in the atmosphere of 2025.

At the beginning of the song, guitar riffs grab your attention and create an urgent soundscape before lead singer Chandra Nair’s crystal-clear words come through.

What strikes you right away is how the band turns environmental sorrow into rhythmic energy. Instead of dwelling on the bad things happening in the world, they turn their anger into a rhythm that moves things forward, making music that moves people to act instead of just being passive.

Chris Wong on bass and Mike Paul on lead guitar play great instrumentals, but it is their energy as a group that really makes this record stand out.

The chorus bursts with stadium-ready promise, with the band’s voices that turn individual worry into a demand from everyone. This way of singing perfectly reflects the main idea of the song: to change the environment, we need to speak with one voice.

The production is a good mix of slick ease and raw conviction, thanks to co-production by Chandra and Elliot Vaughan, who is known for work with Lifted and Overload.

The mixing puts clarity first without losing the natural rock parts that make the song what it is. What makes the music sometimes pull back so the words can hit with full force is especially effective.

When we talk about effect, the band’s choice to put out new music every two months is an interesting strategy shift in today’s streaming-dominated world.

In place of the record cycle model, Chandra seems to be going with the consistent content method that makes artists more visible in automated environments.

If “We Want Our Planet Back” is an example of their level of quality, this release plan could help them reach a lot more people.

The words directly address environmental paralysis. Nair talks about being “dragged back again by money, power, and greed,” which is how many people feel when their efforts to protect the environment are overshadowed by the actions of corporations and politicians.

The song does a great job of bridging generational environmental worry. While recognising that younger listeners are more worried about climate change, the song’s chorus encourages people of all ages to join in.

This approach to everyone feels both planned and real—an environmental song that does not try to turn off potential friends with divisive language.

Chandra shows a lot of reserve for a band that works at the crossroads of entertainment and politics. The song does not give advice; instead, it makes people feel something about natural beliefs they share. This method might reach people who would normally skip over material that is more directly political.

“We Want Our Planet Back” comes out at an interesting time in culture. At this point, environmental messages in popular music tend to be either vaguely artistic or overly preachy.

Instead, Chandra has made protest music that you can actually dance to. It is surprisingly direct and technically advanced.

With a music video coming out at the same time and smart social media placement across all platforms, Chandra seems ready to make this single’s effect bigger than just the number of streams.

Their all-around digital method shows that they know that current musical action needs to involve more than one medium.

“We Want Our Planet Back” sets a strong standard as the first in a series they said would come out every two months. The song works because it turns worry about the environment into a way for everyone to let off steam at the same time. It does this by making music that recognises environmental grief while giving people the energy they need to keep fighting.

People often say that music today is too surface-level, but Chandra has added depth without losing sound quality.
