about

10 months in the making, the Protus Opus project would like to announce it's ninth album. Desolation (previously titled project Comatose) is a festering sound of the anxiety we all feel in a deteriorated society. The darkness is attached to a personal shame, one that has taught serious life lessons over the course of writing this album.

There is a more direct influence over this album, that being climate change. The previous two summers have been filled with dizzying smoke, drought, and imminent facts of science. The title rings true of the environment, but also about our complete social disconnect, and the high anxiety that comes along with both.
