Breaking a lance for President: I think the King of Terrors ep is pretty good. I especially like Fearless and Name of the Father. But I also like Bring Me, Bad Omens and Sleep Token. Pretty similar boat.
No idea though how they're filling an hour or more. Not enough material
The more I think about it, the more I come to believe that the „industry plant“ allegations are a little off mark.
From what we know, this is actually the side project of Charlie from the band Busted. Therefore the connections that enabled President to play Download without having released music prior weren’t as inorganic as some claim. If, for example, Joakim Broden of Sabaton were to create a side project which gets a slot at Graspop before putting out the first project, we wouldn’t call it a plant, even though his track record with Sabaton and his industry connections probably got him there.
The only difference is that we couldn’t see how that Download gig came to be because of that anonymity gimmick.
Seems to me as if the hate is a little exaggerated. Just my two cents though.
