With "Still Exist", Vancouver-based post-punk quartet Necking share an important reminder for us all. 

As Melissa Kuipers explained to The Grey Estates, “After leaving a shitty relationship, I felt really weird being alone. So, I adopted this as a neurotic catchphrase to repeat to myself whenever I felt like I was disappearing. The song is a reminder that even when all you have the strength to do is really regular stuff, like calling your mom or getting to work on time, you’re still a real person and you still exist."
