  • President Announce First Headline Tour As New Songs Push Them Into Overdrive

    president-band-2026

    Are President Touring North America In 2026?

    Yes—President will headline their first-ever North American tour from September 4 through October 14, 2026.

    TL;DR

    President have announced their first North American headline tour following their viral rise and new 2026 singles. The run spans major U.S. and Canadian cities and points directly toward a debut album rollout.

    This Jump Happened Faster Than Most Bands Can Handle

    Not long ago, President were still opening shows.

    Now they’re leading their own full North American run.

    That kind of leap usually exposes a band—or proves they were already bigger than people realized.

    Why The Timing Lines Up Perfectly

    They didn’t disappear after their breakout.

    Instead, they kept moving.

    Two new songs landed in 2026:

    • “Angel Wings” in February
    • “Mercy” shortly after

    That steady output lines up with a band building toward something larger, not slowing down after early hype.

    What This Run Points Toward

    The Album Is The Missing Piece

    President are no longer operating as a single-EP act.

    New songs are arriving.

    Tour scale is increasing.

    Everything around them is expanding at the same time.

    That combination rarely happens without a full-length release close behind.

    Where President Sit Right Now

    Past The Viral Stage

    There’s a clear difference between attention and demand.

    Plenty of bands get one.

    Fewer convert it into packed rooms across an entire continent.

    This run is the first real test of which category President belong in.

  • Kreator Unleash New Music Video for “Loyal To The Grave”

    kreator_band

    German thrash metal band Kreator dropped a new album earlier this year in Krushers of the World and they’re currently out on tour, so they’ve released a music video for the track “Loyal To The Grave.”

    With this particular track showing off a different side of the band’s intensity, “Loyal To The Grave” is one of the more soaring, anthemic tracks featured on the album. It’s aggressive and emotional at the same time, giving fans more to the band’s sound.

    Speaking of the video itself, Mille Petrozza explained the inspiration behind it:

    “The video was inspired by the movie The Crow this time. I hope you enjoy our little journey into obscurity as much as we do.”

    Kreator is currently ripping through Europe with Carcass, Exodus, and Nails. They’ll be heading out to the U.S. for a run with Carcass and Cold Steel this May, so be sure to check the dates below and get your tickets today.
