Deep Purple is a hard rock band from England, United Kingdom. Formed in 1968, they are considered pioneers of heavy metal and modern hard rock. Alongside Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, Deep Purple has left an indelible mark on the music industry. Their unique sound defies categorization into any one genre, as their music transcends boundaries.
The band's impact can be measured by their record-breaking achievements. Once listed by the Guinness Book of World Records as "the loudest pop group," Deep Purple has sold over 100 million albums worldwide. Their influence on the genre is further recognized through their ranking at #22 on VH1's Greatest Artists of Hard Rock program.
In 2016, Deep Purple was rightfully inducted into the prestigious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, solidifying their place among music legends. With a discography that spans decades and includes timeless hits, Deep Purple continues to captivate audiences around the globe with their electrifying performances.

Deep Purple is and continues to be one of the most influential British bands of all time, consistently touring with sold-out shows all around the globe.

After five decades of records made chiefly of original material, Deep Purple's 22nd studio album consists solely of songs written and previously recorded by other artists: a criminal offense commonly described by the rock police and purists Grand Jury as "doing covers."

The album includes studio recordings of songs previously released by Love, Huey "Piano" Smith, Fleetwood Mac, Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels, Bob Dylan, Ray Charles and Quincy Jones, Little Feat, The Yardbirds, Lonnie Donegan/Johnny Horton, Bob Seger System, Cream, plus the "Caught in the Act" medley feat. songs by Freddie King, Booker T. and the M.G.'s, The Allman Brothers Band, Led Zeppelin and The Spencer Davis Group. For the first time in their career, the album was recorded while not being in the same room.

Turning to Crime is Deep Purple enjoying playing music without commercial plans nor losing their edge and drive. This is Deep Purple coming full circle.
