Flummox – Southern Progress | Prog Metal Album Review (2025)

Flummox return with Southern Progress — an album drenched in raw personal experience, wrapped in dizzyingly complex, genre-smashing progressive metal. It's bold, chaotic, emotional... and easily one of the best albums of the year.

Is it perfect? Not quite. But is it unforgettable? Absolutely.

This album is amazing and so is Flummox as a band! Their last 2 albums are really stellar too but I think this new one is now their best work. I'm glad you enjoy them and are talking about them too!

Angry Metal Guy just gave this album a 4.5 (out of 5). I've only listened to it once so far, but it has enough appeal that I will be coming back for more listens.

I adore flummox and happy you've now been flummoxed as well

This album is the definition of criminally underrated. This is the only review of it I could find on YouTube. Maybe criminally unknown is a better word cuz seemingly every review I do find on random websites and stuff is just raving about how great it is lol

I heard it yesterday, and there were a lot of moments that piqued my interest. I will definitely be listening to this a lot more.
