    While it's not a groundbreaking redefinition of what metal should be, it's a firm statement of intent from the London-based quintet.

    This is as good a debut album from a British metal band as you're likely to hear in 2011.

    City of Vultures is a solid first offering suggesting that Dickinson Jr. is capable of stepping out of his father's shadows in the future.
