New Releases October 2020

How many of these have you heard?  How many have you never even heard of?  Are you wondering what has happened to prog music since the 70’s?  (If you are wondering about that last question, then you definitely have a lot of catching up to do.) 

Well these monthly New Release reports are here to help you with these things, at least on a monthly basis.  

You have wandered into the New Release Report for the month of October in the year of our Covid 2020.  Below are the new releases that were released in October of 2020 where, as a feature of convenience brought to you by hyperlinks, you can click on each artist or album and be instantly whisked away to the specific artist or album page in the Archives, and, unless the link is broken, you can also get access to most of the music available for streaming the specific album/artist.

All of the artists on this list are already in the Archives.  If you know of any other releases that should be on this list, before suggesting them to be added to this list, you should:

1. Make sure they are progressive.
2. Make sure the album was released in October, 2020
3. Check to see if they are listed in the Archives (this site).
4. If they are not listed in the Archives, you can suggest that we add the artist by posting in the “Suggest New Bands and Artists” thread, but make sure you read the rules for making suggestions to the Archives first, which you can read right here >>> http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=122381
5. If the previous three conditions are met, then you are welcome to let me know to add the artist/album to this new release report by knocking my upside my head, or, better still, asking me nicely to do so in this thread.

Ok, so without further ado, here is the October, 2020 New Release Report.
