DEEP PURPLE: 'Rapture Of The Deep' Track Listing, Artwork Revealed

August 23, 2005

According to TheHighwayStar.com, DEEP PURPLE have set the tentative track listing for their new album, "Rapture of the Deep", due on October 21 via Edel Records.

DEEP PURPLE spent five weeks at a Los Angeles studio earlier this year recording the follow-up to 2003's "Bananas" with producer Mike Bradford. The album is described by keyboardist Don Airey as "a lot heavier" than "Bananas". "We recorded it in the same studio that use to be used by KORN, and it's got a wonderful sound," Airey said. "It's got a real, immediate drum and organ sound. I was really happy working in there."

"Rapture of the Deep" (view cover here) track listing:

01. Back to Back
02. Before Time Began
03. Clearly Quite Absurd
04. Don’t Let Go
05. Girls Like That
06. Rapture of the Deep
07. MTV (European bonus track)
08. Money Talks
09. Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye
10. Junkyard Blues (Japanese bonus track)
11. Things I Never Said
12. Wrong Man

"Rapture of the Deep" will be the group's first release since their split with the EMI label.
