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.[2] 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.[3]
The album was released on February 26, 2016 via Metal Blade Records and can be streamed in its entirety in the SoundCloud and Bandcamp pages of the band. A video was made for the title track, which features a guest appearance by guitarist Chris Poland. The video was directed by Brian Cox of Flarelight Films.[4]
