In the midst of summer and the rock festival season, Deep Purple has released ‘Lazy Sod’ today, the third song from their upcoming album ‘=1’. Listen Here.

Deep Purple’s latest song, ‘Lazy Sod’, is now available for streaming and as instant gratification track with all digital download pre-orders for ‘=1’. Alongside the single release, the official music video for ‘Lazy Sod’ is now live on Deep Purple’s YouTube channel.

“Recently, a young journalist asked me how many songs I had written in my life. I replied that the last time my assistant counted, twenty years ago, it was over 500. I felt quite accomplished until she pointed out Dolly Parton’s 5,000 songs, calling me a lazy sod. I couldn’t help but agree and wrote down the exchange in my notebook.”

Produced once again by iconic Bob Ezrin, the new album ‘=1’ captures the purest classic Deep Purple sound, without relying on nostalgia.

In celebration of the new album, Deep Purple will perform more than 60 concerts worldwide this year during their ‘=1MORE TIME’ tour.

With three consecutive No. 1 albums in their back pocket and a resurgent new energy powering them forward, this is Deep Purple at their pinnacle. ‘Now WHAT?!’ (2013), inFinite’(2017), and ‘Whoosh!’ (2020) have sold over one million copies worldwide, making Deep Purple one of the most successful rock bands currently active. The latest studio album, “Whoosh!”, reached #1 on the album charts in 7 countries and charted in the top 10 in another 12.
