A=N is an engrossing track that provides listeners a ton to consider as the effort proceeds. The song links together new wave, goth, and Boy George-styled pop into an engrossing and alluring composition. The charisma and passion of the single’s vox are countered well through the sweeping sounds of the backing instrumentation. A=N is given ample time to rise and fall, with each section shifting and changing the overall feeling of the song enough to keep fans firmly planted on the edges of their seats. The slowing down of the single’s bridge provides The Formalist a fresh slate upon which the performers can build momentum as they reach the finish line.
