I don't know what happened to Useless ID between the release of Bad Story Happy Ending and this abomination, but whatever it was it wasn't good.
The pride of Hafia Israel, Useless ID, used to be a good punk band with poppy components. With this cd, it's obvious that they've become a pop band with (presumably) punk hair cuts. If you liked Let it Burn or Bad Story Happy Ending, do not buy this cd.
another good pop-punk band August 27, 2005
This band is pretty good. They are kinda like new found glory and a little bit of simple plan mixed in. Their beats and lyrics are completely awesome and whenever you listen to it you get pumped up. I'd reccomend this cd along with their other cd no vacation from the world.

I only found out about Useless ID in August 05. I listened to a sample of it and loved it. Then, i bought the cd, Redemption. I still cannot believe that they are Israeli! At least that's what i've heard. I think the drummer is crazy in a good way on this whole cd. The guitars are cool, too. The lyrics are great, too. So i will do a review(by the way, i wrote the review for Slipknot + 2 if you're who i am):
1.Its allright - very cool song. Its amazing. this was the song i heard a sample of when i heard it. Even then, it was like green day. Great.
2.Kiss me/Kill me - This is a great song. i like how in the chorus the chord progression changes completely. Yes.
3.Pink stars and magazines - this is the latest "issue" of great punk songs. I love the lyrics the most. It great.
4.Deny it - This is the only song that BORES me a little. the lyrics could be a bit better and so the druming as well. 1/2 and 1/2.
5.Suffer for the fame - my absolute favorite on the whole cd. first it starts out with jazzy type music and goes into a jimi hendrix vresion one of beethovens symphonys. then it just goes into the song. but i'd still say that its great. Excitment and all. i like how at the end its kind of like a Slipknot chorus and it goes, "I!!!! don't want it in my world........" An amazing one.
6.Turn up the stereo - good song. it even does feel like i want to turn up the stereo. its great song.
7. Before i go - i think its an amazing song. 1. because my friends and me are making a movie and its about exploring and this song might be the opening credits. 2. the lyrics and vocal styling are one of the best on the cd.
8. Dying Love- its a great song. just BORES me a little. Pretty good, tho.
9.Drinkage-good song. the lyrics are pretty good. the drumming is too.
10.Everything turned red - my second favorite on the cd. really good and cool. i like when the song ends where it goes "Everything turned red the first time i saw you" over and cver again and it seems like it never stops.
11.State of fear - my third favorite on the cd. it is a great song. all i have to say.
12. Redemption - my fourth favorite. i love it, tho. its really cool, the lyrics, the percussion, and the guitars and the bass are really good in this one. great closing track.
All in all, i really love this cd and it is a must by for those who like Jimi Hendrix, green day, and Ozzy, and Slipknot. This is still an Israeli punk band. i stil can't believe they are isreali! they sing in english,tho.
i love this cd April 23, 2006
i heard of this cd from a co worker who plays it all the time and now its one of my favorite cds, my favorite song is turn up the stereo.
A Good, Poppy Punk Record February 14, 2007
Normally I would give this four stars, but I am giving it five because this band deserves better than the limited exposure they get, and secondly because not all the reviewers below have given this CD justice. I bought Useless ID's last CD "No Vacation From the World" and found this newer release "Redemption" to be an improvement. It's a bit poppier, but on the other hand, the song "Pink Stars and Magazines" was one of the best punk songs to be released in 2005. Also noteworthy is the opening track (which starts out almost identical to the Goo Goo Dolls "Slide" then builds up to a pop-punk chorus. Another winner is the track "Suffer For the Fame," which shows the group branching out into new territory without selling out via a big dark gothic opera (Like Good Charlotte and Blink 182 have done.) Also catchy is "Turn Up the Stereo," very similar to the Ataris "Radio #2." There are a few duds, particularly towards the end of the album (ironically the same thing dragged down their previous album a bit as well) and the track "Before I Go" sounds like it was taken right out of the Weezer playbook, but all in all, quite a good time. The album gets a positive vibe going, unlike the dark gothic all-too-serious "new mature sound" that many of these bands have adopted lately. Kudos to Useless I.D. for making another winner and giving the fans the kind of music THEY want to hear. If you're lookin for some catchy pop-punk similar to Allister's "Last Stop Suburbia" or Sugarcult's "Start Static" then look no further.
