The inspiration of Los Angeles-based multi-instrumentalist Nick Van Dyk (guitars, bass, keyboards), Redemption proudly unfurls the flag of American progressive metal, as proved by their imposingly rendered eponymous debut of 2003, likewise featuring vocalist Rick Mythiasin (ex-Steel Prophet and New Eden), bassist Jason Rullo (of Symphony X), and guitarist Bernie Versailles, on loanword from the legendary Fates Warning. For their second album, 2005's The Fullness of Time, Redemption gained an extra boost with the guest presence of Fates Warning singer Ray Alder, and bust in some other accomplished round section in bassist James Sherwood and drummer Chris Quirarte -- both at one time of prog rockers Prymary.
