Flummox's new album Southern Progress is out today on Needlejuice Records! Here's what the music press is saying...
"One of the most heart-thumping, foot-tapping, and head-scratching records to materialize in 2025 thus far." - New Noise
"Progressive, genre-hopping progressive thrash. ... Skates between majestic metal crush and piano-led shuffles. Their Bungaloid metal is totally entertaining, and the players sew together all the sonic pieces cleverly." - Decibel Magazine
"Bewildering and amazing ... 'Southern Progress' is an absolute trip. In just four minutes, Flummox manage to put together a mind-bending collision of influences. Equal measures Judas Priest, Norway’s Shining, Devin Townsend, Dream Theater, The Dillinger Escape Plan and Mr. Bungle, with a healthy dose of rock & roll attitude and Protest The Hero intensity, 'Southern Progress' is a wholly unique musical potion flavoured with sass. Right from the get-go, the song is explosively confrontational – high-octane fast-car thrash riffing drenched in glam and glitter; bombastic, fierce, raunchy, and totally unapologetic." - Everything Is Noise
"Genre-fluid prog thrash ... heavy-sounding with some pretty hefty anti-establishment aspirations." - MAGNET Magazine
"A wild three-ring wing-ding that will leave the uninitiated bemused, baffled and bewildered — not to mention solidly blown away. Fuelled by blazing boogie-rock axe riffage, driven by a hard-bouncing groove that veers in and out of 11/8, and laced with punchy organ, blistering basslines, squiggling synthesizers and layer upon layer of left-field lunacy, this brain-busting track smartly smacks the sweet spot between mid-’70s Frank Zappa, Mr. Bungle, Primus and King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard. Rock, metal, prog, psych, funk, boogie, jam-rock; you name it, it’s in here somewhere." - Tinnitist
"Weird and wonderful." - Toilet ov Hell
