Humans of the future have created a self-developing artificial consciousness, called The Protocol, to help them uncover the remaining mysteries of the universe; the truth. However, it soon grows beyond their control, and takes life hostage, bringing the human race to the verge of extinction, and sinking their world into chaos and destruction, in order to create a universe of its own; one where it is in control, for eternity.

Now, what's left of The Humans shall venture on a journey to the confines of the universe, reach The Protocol, and battle the all-knowing entity.
To restore balance. To find the truth.


The New Year Protocol Series is the first of its kind: an album that develops and evolves over time; a story told throughout the years, and a testament to a distant future; but also, a story of growth, and self-discovery.
The series debuted in January 2016, and will last 10 years, with one chapter every January, until its completion in 2025.
