Heavy duo House of Protection returns with their third single this year, “I Need More Than This”, off their forthcoming EP, ‘Outrun You All‘, arriving May 23 via Red Bull Records.
Coming off the explosive nature of their last track, “Fire”, the band eases into a slower-paced soundscape while maintaining the infectious energy they’ve become known for. “I Need More Than This” is equally as ethereal as it is powerful, demanding that “something better must exist”.
“”I Need More Than This” is us exploring a mood between really heavy/fast and slow/chill,” House of Protection shared. “We don’t really have a song like this so it was fun to push ourselves in this way”.
This release will be accompanied by a music video that blends gritty performance shots with a nostalgic ‘90s grunge aesthetic, mirroring the track’s raw energy.
In just a year, House of Protection have made waves as one of the most exciting live acts, touring with Bad Omens, Architects, and Poppy. They were recently nominated for Best International Breakthrough Artist and Best Breakthrough Live Artist at the Heavy Music Awards, further cementing their rising status.
House of Protection has built a fast-growing fanbase and amassed over 13 million career streams since debuting last April. Their genre-blending first EP, ‘GALORE’, drew critical acclaim from The Guardian, Kerrang!, Revolver and more, landing them on Luminate charts at #14 on Current Hard Rock Albums and #15 on Alternative New Artist Albums. That same fearless ability to move between high-octane hardcore and atmospheric trip-hop now sets the tone for their powerful follow-up, ‘Outrun You All’.
