"Mercy" is a single by the anonymous, masked English metal band President. It was released on 26 March 2026 through Atlantic.
The track marks the band's second single of 2026, following the release of "Angel Wings" in mid-February.
According to the band, the song is a reflection on how religion has historically caused division and suffering, and a personal attempt to understand its human impact, stating:
NME described the single as both "relentless" and "huge," while Revolver praised its layered, arpeggiated synth textures and Deftones-influenced groove. Similarly, Rock Sound called the single "massive" in both scope and sound.
