I remember that I discovered Redemption with their second album The Fullness Of Time. It was probably one of the best surprises for me, and one of my favorite albums since that day. After a really good third release, the Americans are back with their new baby, Snowfall On Judgment Day. One more time the band confirms that they're among the best progressive Metal act and if you still don't know them, I will ask you to check this release to finally discover a really nice band.

What a beautiful album, oh yes, maybe it's not groundbreaking, actually I had the sensation that I listened to this before, but also I thought that the musicianship was quite good, and the vocals fit perfectly with the music, oh shit, I love Ray Alder too much, it's really good to listen to his voice in other bands than Fates Warning (another great band!). Great prog album indeed.

The album as a whole is full of good/very good songs. It flows very well.

There are a few songs that send this album over the top: Peel, Black and White World, and ESPECIALLY Love Kills Us All / Life In One Day. I consider Life In One Day probably one of the best songs in my collection.

Prog with 180 votes that I've never heard of?! Shame on me. In any case, just heard it and it's pretty tasty stuff.

Try their debut. It's miles ahead of anyhting they released afterwards.

I don't know what the hell I've been doing all these years when I should have been listening to this diamond. This one's kinda like "Train of Thought" with better songwriting and a maybe little less complex song structures. I can't find anything to complain here, the opening song alone with that headbanging main riff is so damn good I must have listened to it at least 10 times before I actually continued to the next one.

Same thing man, that first song I sometimes can't get over it's so good I love the drumming so much in there, reminds me of J Mac from ARK fame a lot, and it's so rare that I find drumming intriguing.
