Eh, not really feeling this one. Redemption play a respectably competent variety of progressive metal which ticks most of the boxes without ever quite managing to excite me. Ray Alder of Fates Warning has a rather generic vocal delivery which feels a little soulless and lacking in personality - much like the drum work by Chris Quirarte, which is technically on-form but feels rather stiff and mechanical (there's points where I do have to wonder whether they weren't sneakily using a drum machine here and there). Keyboard flourishes from Nick van Dyk are pretty enough but feel like embellishments to what is otherwise a fairly uninteresting package. Those who are more keen on Alder-era Fates Warning might get more out of this than I do.
