About the band

Deep Purple is a British rock band formed in 1968, often considered one of the pioneers of hard rock and heavy metal. Known for their virtuosic musicianship, powerful guitar riffs, and iconic organ-driven sound, they helped shape the foundations of heavy metal with albums like In Rock (1970) and Machine Head (1972). Their fusion of blues rock, classical influences, and aggressive guitar work set the stage for the heavy, riff-centric sound that would define hard rock and metal in the following decades. With classic tracks like "Smoke on the Water" and "Highway Star," Deep Purple influenced countless bands in the hard rock and heavy metal scenes, leaving a lasting legacy in rock music history.
