Continuing on their hot streak this year, House of Protection returns with yet another unrelenting single, “Fire”, the second track to arrive off their anticipated sophomore EP, ‘Outrun You All’, due on May 23rd via Red Bull Records. Fans can stream the new single HERE and watch the music video HERE.
The song does its title justice, serving up thrashing guitars, high-pitched sirens, and emphatic lyrics fuelled by a punk spirit. On the single, the band shares, “The goal with “Fire” was to write something with as much infectious energy as possible. A song that could invoke as much dancing as it does moshing. It’s a hard balance to pull off. This has been the one new song we’ve played on tour before its release and it’s already become our favourite to jam live.”
Last month, the release of “Afterlife”, the lead single from the forthcoming ‘Outrun You All’ EP, outperformed all previous releases, securing prime placements on Spotify’s New Music Friday across key markets in Asia, including Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam—a significant momentum that signals growing support in the region, firmly positioning them as an act to watch in Asia. With increasing industry recognition, their influence and reach are set to expand in the months ahead.
The band featured on “Brain Dead”, the lead track from Architects’ #1 album, ‘The Sky, The Earth, & All Between’ last month, which was accompanied by an adrenaline-pumping video. Looking ahead, House of Protection will reunite with both Poppy in April on her US tour and Architects in October during their EU/UK run, sandwiching a slate of major festival plays in Europe over the summer.
Sought-after by some of the most influential collaborators across the scene, House of Protection has not so quietly become a tour de force. In less than a year as a new band, they’ve skyrocketed to nearly 1 million monthly listeners on Spotify where they earned a spot on the platform’s competitive ‘Artists to Watch 2025’ roster. Their genre-spanning debut EP, ‘GALORE’, has earned 10 million global streams, achieving Luminate chart positions at #14 on Current Hard Rock Albums and #15 on Alternative New Artist Albums, and made Spotify’s ‘Artists to Watch 2025’ list. The momentum continues into this next project, at a pace that matches their boundless energy.
