“Constant Reminder” is the newest single by punk artist N4November. The track features vocal melodies and guitar harmonization, crafted into an introspective concept. His first name is Alex, and he is a Filipino-Chinese born Australian, according to his Spotify description.
The genre listed on Apple Music is Punk, and this upbeat song definitely fits within that classification. The power guitar is the focus of the song structure, as well as the melodic singing that is featured. The harmonization is superb, and includes the keyboard parts in the background. The lyrics focus on the struggles of life, and how perseverance constantly takes energy. “It’s the things we care for most, that destroy us, hold this close” he sings to begin the first verse.
He has released two songs on Spotify so far, the other is called “Dear Friend,”. He plays the guitar, sings, and is the main songwriter for N4November. Being the only member, it makes sense that he has multiple roles to fill to make the music sound cohesive. His singing is catchy, and the emotion behind the words can be felt through his voice.
He describes a common struggle for some people, having a connection with a friend or loved one under certain circumstances cause us to hurt more than a stranger would. “The end of the night is the time I feel most alone, when you leave. A constant reminder, it’s easy to get hurt by the ones we care for most, don’t go” he sings during the chorus.
N4November has made an amazingly catchy punk song, with rock and pop influences, and relatable lyrics.
