Following the arrival of their debut EP GALORE, House Of Protection is back with a new single and music video, as well as the promise of a forthcoming EP. Produced by frequent collaborator Jordan Fish (ex-Bring Me The Horizon), Stephen Harrison and Aric Improta just debuted “Afterlife” from Outrun You All, due out on May 23 via Red Bull Records.
The duo shares, “‘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.”
They continue, “We intentionally wanted to keep that whole first EP pretty fast. After our debut shows, we realized 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 favorites.”
Directed by Improta and Kevin Garcia, the “Afterlife” music video, features a latex-clad, platform-wearing model and myriad fiery, trippy elements. Its visuals are just as dynamic and impactful as the genre-bending song. “Afterlife” is a pummeling, vicious track that demands your full attention, grasping you with its larger-than-life breakdowns and raw, soaring choruses. House Of Protection‘s sophomore EP is poised to be bigger and better than ever.
