The Art of Loss

The Art of Loss is the sixth studio album of American progressive metal band Redemption. It is the band's last studio album to feature vocalist Ray Alder. It is also their first album without guitarist and founding member Bernie Versailles, who has been on indefinite medical leave of absence from the band since suffering an aneurysm in October 2014. To replace Versailles in the recordings, the guitarist and DGM member Simone Mularoni and former Megadeth guitar players Chris Poland, Chris Broderick and Marty Friedman were invited. Vocalist John Bush of Armored Saint appears as a guest singer on "Love, Reign o'er Me", a cover of a song originally recorded by The Who.

Critical reception
Sputnik Music writer Trey Spencer came away impressed stating, "The Art of Loss maintains the heavy riffs and driving rhythms of This Mortal Coil, but returns the focus to the classy progressive metal that defined the band’s earlier albums. If The Art of Loss isn’t considered Redemption’s best album, it’s damn near close." ==Track listing==
