If there is a band that combines a classic approach with innovative ideas and an unbridled joy of playing in order to pay homage to their role models (the early Exodus, Metallica or Slayer), it is the German heavy metal heroes VULTURE. On their fourth album "Sentinels", which will be released on April 12th via Metal Blade Records, they prove once again that tradition and further development are not mutually exclusive, but on the contrary can lead to something extraordinary that leaves no headbanger untouched.
