   Hello friends,
I am curious what your sources for info on new releases in the progosphere. I'm usually aware of the bigger name releases but every year some of the long timers will have albums in their year end lists that I've not heard of or didn't were out this year. So where do you find out about some of these lesser known bands' new material?

	You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

	I will second Necrotica's monthly list. I also subscribe to Prog magazine so I find new releases through their monthly reviews or ads in the magazine. Although, they seem to include reviews of many albums that probably don't meet our prog standards and they don't seem to include much of the more out-there avant prog that seems to be favored amongst PA denizens.
	If you choose not to decide...you will get a side of fries with that.
