Deep Purple return with their new studio album SPLAT! Rather than simply preserving their legacy, Deep Purple continue to extend it, driven by the same spirit that defined their earliest work. With SPLAT!, the band deliver their heaviest album in many years, recorded together in the studio the way Deep Purple have always recorded. Once again produced by Bob Ezrin, the album draws on the sound and attitude that have always set Deep Purple apart. At the heart of SPLAT! is an idea conceived by Ian Gillan: The album explores the end of humanity not in any crude apocalyptic sense but as a metamorphosis beyond physical existence. Frontman Ian Gillan says: “Where we are now with this incarnation of Deep Purple feels very much like a very ‘now’ version of Deep Purple as it was in the seventies.”
Box Set contains a 2LP Gatefold on 180g vinyl, a 12-page vinyl-sized booklet, a CD Digisleeve, three exclusive 10-inch vinyl editions featuring live recordings from the Deep Purple Tour 2024, and an exclusive 7-inch single featuring the bonus track “GUINNESIS”, which is not included on the studio album and is available exclusively in the box set.
