Multi-million-streaming, UK-based collective PRESIDENT have officially unveiled their debut full-length record, BLOOD OF YOUR EMPIRE, available now through Atlantic Records. Fans can listen to and stream the album across all major platforms.

Coinciding with the album's release, the band has launched their very first headline tour, which sold out entirely in advance. Following a full U.S. tour alongside Bad Omens earlier this year, PRESIDENT are now taking the lead at venues across North America. Select dates on these current live runs feature supporting sets from Showing Teeth.

This debut marks a major landmark in the overarching President campaign. Reflecting on the core themes behind the music, President shared:

"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," President says. "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. Writing it became a way for me to confront the fear, confusion, and questions I've carried for years, and turn them into something I'm truly proud of."

The album's visual identity features artwork taken from Eugène Delacroix's painting, The Battle of Poitiers, a piece housed in the Louvre.

Since launching in 2025 under a veil of minimalism and complete anonymity, PRESIDENT have built continuous mystery with every single and live set. Choosing to ignore standard rules of genre and identity, the collective consistently places pure intent ahead of image.

Looking ahead to the fall, PRESIDENT will head back out to headline venues across North America before bringing their headline show to the UK and Europe. The entire upcoming tour is already completely sold out.
