Rising alternative artist Nick Karcher released his playful pop-punk anthem 'Not Another Song Called Perfect' earlier this month.
Nick Karcher has put out his newest playful single 'Not Another Song Called Perfect'. From Chicago, Nick Karcher is combining polished synths, gritty guitars and self-aware humour to propel his nostalgic and fresh sound into the ears of anyone who's willing to listen. His rising popularity skyrocketed back in the summer of 2024 when pop-punk legends, We The Kings, discovered his social media and jumped on a remix of his breakout track 'Blame It on the Universe'. The beloved single has amassed over 200,000 streams across all platforms but Nick Karcher is more than just a one hit wonder, each release he puts out is more impressive and he's proving that he's someone who's here to stay.
'Not Another Song Called Perfect' takes on a more polished persona but is still packed with humour.
"Nothing was more important to me than having fun, upbeat music to play live with this single. Getting to tackle an insecurity I feel like most people have felt in relationships in such a fun, lighthearted, me way felt like the only way to do it. In actuality, this song really should've been called 'Perfect' and that's kind of the joke. However, I refused to have such a basic title so I felt like it was the perfect opportunity to show love to one of the best early aughts spoof films. Because do we really need another song called 'Perfect'?" - (Nick Karcher)
My first impression of this track was that it's so light and packed with a fresh pop-punk energy. The way Nick Karcher embraces humour while keeping it completely relatable makes 'Not Another Song Called Perfect' one of my favourite tracks to come from the pop-punk genre recently. I am a big fan of the way Nick Karcher doesn't take himself too seriously in this one. The chorus is massive and ridiculously catchy, almost feeling as though it would fit in on a teenage musical soundtrack. You'll be wanting to sing the lyrics in no time and as much as this is not another song called perfect it will have you singing the lyric "perfect" a lot.
