Following the explosive intensity of their last single “Fire,” the band shifts into more atmospheric territory with “I Need More Than This.” The track trades blistering speed for a moody, slow-burning soundscape—without losing the signature edge and urgency that defines their sound. With its yearning lyricism and bold dynamics, the track echoes a deep desire for something more: “something better must exist.”

“I Need More Than This’ is us exploring a mood between really heavy/fast and slow/chill,” the band shares. “We don’t really have a song like this, so it was fun to push ourselves in this way.”

Accompanying the single is a raw, visually gripping music video that mixes gritty performance visuals with a nostalgic ‘90s grunge flair—perfectly capturing the emotional intensity of the track.

One of Heavy Music’s Fastest-Rising New Acts

In just over a year, House of Protection have emerged as one of the most electrifying new acts in heavy music. They’ve toured alongside Bad Omens, Architects, and Poppy, and earned nominations for Best International Breakthrough Artist and Best Breakthrough Live Artist at the Heavy Music Awards.

Their debut EP GALORE drew praise from outlets like The Guardian, Kerrang!, and Revolver, and made waves on the Luminate charts, debuting at #14 on Current Hard Rock Albums and #15 on Alternative New Artist Albums. Since launching in April 2023, the band has amassed over 13 million streams and built a rapidly growing global fanbase.

With Outrun You All, House of Protection continues to blur the lines between hardcore ferocity and cinematic trip-hop atmospheres—proving their fearless creativity and genre-defying sound are only just beginning to take shape.
