PRESIDENT
President (stylised as PRESIDENT) is an anonymous English band formed in 2025, who blend metalcore with electronica. The band had released no music and were unknown until they were announced to play at that year's Download Festival, sparking speculation to their identity. Their frontman, the eponymous President, is described by Revolver as "silver-haired, wearing an eerie, not-quite-lifelike mask etched with deep wrinkles and radiating wax-figure unease". They released their debut EP, King of Terrors, in 2025.
The band's current lineup consists of The President (vocals), Heist (guitarist), Protest (bassist) and Vice (drummer). While their identities remain concealed, multiple sources have suggested the masked lead vocalist is Charlie Simpson, co-lead vocalist and guitarist for Busted and former frontman for Fightstar.
