Yep, just like in 2017, KGLW are doing another year with 5 albums (after march's Made In Timeland and april's Omnium Gatherum). They are:

-Ice, Death, Planets, Lungs, Mushrooms And Lava (October 7th): A jammy double album based around the 7 greek modes

-Laminated Denim (October 12th): The sequel (prequel?) to Made In Timeland, again with two 15-minute tracks

-Changes (October 28th): An album '5 years in the making', with six different album covers

Like their previous 2022 releases, no CD versions sadly. The only track off these albums released so far is Ice V from IDPLM&L, and it sounds pretty good IMO.

They're certainly quite prolific.

They have been known to slack off. They didn't release a single album in 2018, for instance.

I'd maybe add Paper Mâché Dream Balloon—albums of theirs such as Quarters!, Sketches of Brunswick East, Fishing for Fishies, Butterfly 3000, and even some stuff off of Gumboot Soup and Omnium Gatherum have much more of a mellow vibe. Paper Mâché Dream Balloon is probably the most mellow of all of those, but it's probably the opposite extreme of their sound from Infest the Rats' Nest and Nonagon Infinity. So I think including it as a "core" album would probably help to encompass the most comprehensive range of their sound.

I use they/them pronouns (feel free to ask me about this!)

Just sample a bit from a couple albums to see if any of them particularly catch your interest. Their whole thing is that each album is very different, so there's no one album that really sums them up completely (maybe Omnium Gatherum, but I haven't heard it). Nonagon Infinity is really popular, and from what I've heard so far they're best one. Polygondwanaland should appeal to most prog fans. Other stuff is a bit more genre-specific, like Infest The Rats' Nest being thrash metal, or Butterfly 3000 being synth-pop-ish.

Yes, maybe my three favorites of theirs. But I do think Tempest_77 has a point. It'll leave you with the impression of a much heavier band than KG&LW really are, but as he goes on reccomending two of my least favorite albums of theirs (Fishing For Fishies and Butterfly 3000). I do love these though:
