House of Protection announce Jordan Fish-produced EP, Outrun You All

Aric Improta and Stephen Harrison AKA House of Protection have unveiled details of their second EP, Outrun You All.

Accompanying the announcement of Outrun You All is the brand new single "Afterlife" which was made in collaboration with close friend and producer Jordan Fish.

On the making of the single, the band shared, “‘Afterlife’ was the second song we demoed, right after “It’s Supposed to Hurt”. It started with just the guitar stab and the whip sound. We liked it a lot, but ultimately, we pushed to avoid heavy half-time on ‘GALORE’. We intentionally wanted to keep that whole first EP pretty fast. After our debut shows, we realised how much we missed the feeling live, so we revisited it and refined the ideas with Jordan and Nick. Now it’s one of our favourites.”

Stephen Harrison and Aric Improta might be out of music entirely if they hadn’t discovered a new obsession in 2023 - their own band. “We couldn’t be at this point in our careers and be in a band that’s not our favourite band,” Improta explains.

After years of commercial and critical success in post-hardcore icons Fever 333, as well as The Chariot and Night Verses respectively, the duo had to put aside all of the striving and stress to reconnect with their first loves as House of Protection. “It’s all gotta be the things we thought were cool as kids.”

Outrun You All will arrive on 23 May via Red Bull Records.
