The L.A. progressive metal band REDEMPTION has announced they will release their seventh studio album on July 27th.

Long Night’s Journey Into Day‘ will arrive from Metal Blade Records on that day, the band’s first album with Evergrey singer Tom Englund. He replaces the recently exited Ray Alder (Fate’s Warning), the vocalist upon five previous albums. Guitarist Nick Van Dyk commented on those events, saying:

We were unable to tour ‘The Art Of Loss’ [2016 release] because Ray was not able to actively participate in Redemption any longer, so we decided it was time to part company shortly after its release. Ray is a dear friend, and I have nothing but respect and love for him and what we created together. But at some point, it just became untenable.

‘Long Night’s Journey Into Day’ is the first REDEMPTION record to be produced with Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Primal Fear, Amaranthe, Doro, etc.). Once again, guitarists  Chris Poland (Megadeth, OHM) and Simone Mularoni (DGM) return as guest musicians.

REDEMPTION is:
Tom Englund – vocals
Nick Van Dyk – guitars
Sean Andrews – bass
Chris Quirarte – drums
Vikram Shankar – keyboards

On a related note, REDEMPTION will appear at ProgPower USA 2018 on September 8th in Atlanta, GA.
