>Deep Purple are releasing a new album in 2026Why do they keep going?
>>130660610>Why do they keep going?For the love of the game
>>130660610That's what I thought when I was listening to Screamadelica and saw Primal Scream was coming out with a new album. Like, there's an audience for a new Primal Scream record?
>Why do they want to keep having fun and living the dream making music when I dont listen to them?

>>130660673More Light was decent but most other albums they made in the last 20 years were forgettable
>>130660610fame =/= moneypeople need actual $$$ for mortgages, kids' uni tuition, food, gas, insurance, household expenses, etc.people have to live and they have to pay to do it
They're touring this year. Are their recent shows any good? I'm a big Steve Morse fan so I wasn't planning to go but now I'm willing if the show is decent.
>>130660610The album cover is quite cool, which is usually a good sign
>>130661738Come Ahead was a good album.
>>130663121I thought they were good on their last tour. Ian Gillan is 80 years old so you can't expect him to sing like he did in 1982 though.
>>130660610To spite Ritchie Black(ed)more and his medieval bullshit, ofc.
Ritchie and Jon Lord were the soul of Deep Purple
>>130660610>noo you are supposed to rot away at home like any old man you are not allowed to have fun in your 80s aaaa
>>130660610Same with Yes, their last good album came out in the late 70s, yet, they kept releasing over 40 years worth of dogshit.
>>130665106why are boomers like that
>>130660673Yeah but Primal Scream was (is?) a good band. Blues rock is just disposable noise.
>>130664948True but my Deep Purple hot take is that Sometimes I Feel Like Screaming contains their best riff and solo. Should have been an instrumental though, Gillan's part kinda ruins it.
That cover is probably better than the music on the albumSaw them in 2011 and Gillan's voice was gone back then
