Ok, my big fear is that Redemption is either one of the better songs on the album, or it's smack in the middle. If we're generous, and we imagine Redemption basically ranks in the middle of songs, then you've got 4 songs on the album that are better than Redemption, and 4 songs that aren't, plus the intro and minute-long instrumental track. Since Redemption is pretty run-of-the-mill, not-bad-but-not-really-good, the idea of half the album, no matter how short, being worse than it is not very promising.
