Los Angeles-based progressive thrash band Prototype will enter a local studio next week [week of Nov 30 -ed.] with producer Neil Kernon (Cannibal Corpse, Queensryche, Deicide, Nile) to begin recording its as-yet-untitled third album. Returning drummer Pat Magrath will lay down his tracks for the CD with Kernon at the helm, after which Prototype will head into its own Utopia Studios to complete the recording process. Kernon is also scheduled to mix the album early next year. Song titles set to appear on the effort ? which will be released in 2010 via Nightmare Records ? include "Catalyst," "The Chosen Ones," "Cynic Dreams," "The Ageless Heart Of Memory," "Into Oblivion" and "My Own Deception."

Demo samples of four new songs can be heard on the band's MySpace page.

Prototype is: Vince Levalois - Guitar/Vocals; Kragen Lum - Guitar; Kirk Scherer - Bass; Pat Magrath - Drums
