Anonymous collective share 'Doom Loop' video as Atlantic Records prepares their first full-length
PRESIDENT’s debut album ‘Blood Of Your Empire’ will arrive on 4th September via Atlantic Records.
Alongside the news, the anonymous alternative project have shared a new single called ‘DOOM LOOP’, continuing the rollout for a record shaped by themes of faith, mortality and existential crisis.
“The song is really about the strange tragedy of time — how we spend our lives chasing it, wasting it, and fearing it — only to realise its value once a moment is gone,” the band explain. “It's a reminder for people to be present while they are actually living their lives, not just remembering them afterwards.”
Speaking about the album, PRESIDENT say: “‘Blood Of Your Empire’ was born out of my own struggle with existential crisis and trying to make sense of belief, mortality, and humanity's relationship with faith.”
“Religion has inspired incredible compassion, purpose, and beauty in the world — but it has also been responsible for unimaginable suffering and bloodshed throughout history. This album lives in the tension between those two truths.”
The ten-track album includes previously released songs ‘DOOM LOOP’, ‘dark heaven’ and ‘Mercy’, while its artwork features Eugène Delacroix’s painting ‘The Battle of Poitiers’.
PRESIDENT recently completed their first US run supporting Bad Omens and will head out on a UK and European headline tour later this year, finishing at London’s O2 Academy Brixton.
The full tracklisting reads:
'Angel Wings'
'Doom Loop'
'dark heaven'
