PRESIDENT Announce Debut Album Blood Of Your Empire
PRESIDENT have announced their debut album Blood Of Your Empire, set for release on September 4, 2026 via Atlantic Records.
The announcement arrives alongside the video for new single “DOOM LOOP,” a dark, cinematic offering from the mysterious heavy outfit, who have quickly built a reputation around atmosphere, anonymity and a refusal to play by the usual rules of identity or genre.
Doom Loop Looks Time Straight in the Eye
“DOOM LOOP” continues PRESIDENT’s fusion of heavy music, electronic experimentation and widescreen tension. Built around the emotional weight of time, memory and presence, the track lands as another statement from an artist project designed to be uncovered rather than over-explained.
PRESIDENT describes the song as a reflection on the strange tragedy of time, and the way people spend their lives chasing it, wasting it and fearing it before understanding its value too late.
Blood Of Your Empire Arrives in September
Blood Of Your Empire is described as an album born from existential crisis, belief, mortality and humanity’s complicated relationship with faith.
The record appears to sit in a stark emotional conflict: the beauty, purpose and compassion religion can inspire, set against the suffering and bloodshed committed in its name. That tension gives the album its central charge, shaping a debut that feels deliberately heavy in both sound and subject.
The album artwork uses Eugène Delacroix’s painting The Battle of Poitiers, which hangs in the Louvre.
