House of Protection, the new venture from Stephen Harrison and Aric Improta, serves as a sanctuary for those who
surrender to impulse. Abandoning regard for tradition or form, they followed a feeling and unearthed a sound that
sees them push their limits further than ever before. Bridging the not-so-disparate worlds of hardcore, electronica,
and punk, they forged a space for boundless creativity.
Between their shared experience with Fever 333, Aric’s ongoing work with experimental rock group and Steve’s
turn as guitarist for iconic post-hardcore band , the pair are renowned in the world of heavy music for never being
afraid of extremes. House of Protection is a continuation of that unabashed self-expression, bottled into a snarling
vessel of anger, uncertainty, joy, and creativity.
“We wanted to create something where all our ideas, no matter how wild, felt safe,” says Steve. That’s the
foundation for which House of Protection was built upon, arming their audience with a level of fearlessness and
bliss that blurs the line between crowd and performers.
Teaming up with close friends Jordan Fish (ex Bring Me The Horizon) & Nick DePirro (Night Verses), they created
the sprawling, urgent debut single ‘It’s Supposed To Hurt.’ “We knew it wasn’t going to be easy to start again from
scratch but that phrase became our ethos" offers Aric.
House of Protection thrive in the margins of unpredictability, where anything goes and all are invited. Welcome
home.
