Background and release

"It’s the ultimate marker – if there’s nothing after death then that changes everything about life, and the same is true if there is something. My uncle passed away a few years ago, and that was the first time I’d had someone die who was close to me when I wasn’t part of this religious thinking. It hit me really hard. So King Of Terrors sums up the journey I’ve been on."

The President on the album's title, lyrical and musical themes [3]

Following the writing of "In the Name of the Father", the band spent the next eight months working on the rest of the songs that make up the EP. [3] The EP itself was announced in July 2025, alongside the release of the single "Rage". [4] [5] It is set for worldwide release on 26 September 2025. [6]

Musical style and themes

Lyrical and visual themes explore darkness, religion, and death, tied to the Biblical “King of Terrors.” [1] [7]
