"Singer Ian Gillan compared the songs on the new album to their classic tracks, stating, 'I have to say, now we are very much back in with material that is compatible with 'Highway Star,' 'Smoke on the Water,' 'Lazy' - the dynamics, the balance, and the fun of the music we made from '69 to '73.'"
"Deep Purple are supporting the album with a massive 86-date 2026 world tour, including a previously announced headlining North American run with support from Kansas."
