“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,” PRESIDENTsays. “It’s a reminder for people to be present while they are actually living their lives, not just remembering them afterwards.”
“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,” PRESIDENTsays. “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 cover is a Eugène Delacroix painting, The Battle of Poitiers, which, consequently, hangs in the Louvre.
Fresh off their first-ever full U.S. run supporting Bad Omens, PRESIDENT will return to the states this Autumn to headline venues across the continent. The entire tour is already sold out. They will then head back to Europe and the UK for thirteen shows, which finish at London’s O2 Academy Brixton. Full itinerary is below.
