Purpendicular marks a bold new chapter in Deep Purple's legendary career, serving as the band's fifteenth studio album and their first with guitarist Steve Morse, who stepped in to replace founding member Ritchie Blackmore. Released in 1996, the album signaled a revitalized energy for one of rock's most enduring acts, proving that Deep Purple still had plenty of fire left to offer.
The music on Purpendicular showcases the band's impressive range, moving fluidly between hard-hitting, high-energy rock tracks and more expansive, progressive-leaning moments. Morse's fresh guitar work breathes new life into the classic Deep Purple sound, while the band's dynamic songwriting keeps the album engaging from start to finish.
