Digisleeve CD with a 20-page booklet.

 

“SPLAT!” is the long-awaited new album from one of the greatest rock bands of all time: Deep Purple. Instead of resting on their laurels, Deep Purple are resolutely building on their legacy, driven by the same spirit that defined their early albums.

 

With “SPLAT!”, the band presents its hardest-hitting album in many years, recorded together in the studio, as has always been the Deep Purple way. Produced once again by Bob Ezrin, the album captures precisely the sound and attitude that have made Deep Purple unmistakable for decades. At the heart of SPLAT! lies an idea developed by frontman Ian Gillan: the end of humanity conceived not as an apocalypse, but as a metamorphosis beyond physical existence.

 

Ian Gillan: “The current incarnation of Deep Purple feels very much like a modern-day version of Deep Purple from the 1970s.”.”
