Deep Purple have released the official music video for their new single, Diablo. The new track is the latest taste of Splat!, the band’s new studio album, due July 3rd.
Diablo follows Arrogant Boy (which can be heard here), the first single from Splat! and opens the door to one of Deep Purple‘s surreal new story worlds: the most dangerous place on earth, where a heroine crosses a river, jumps into a fighting pit, celebrates with a bucket of wine, falls into the glitter pool and somehow makes it back home with a tale to tell. Diablo is a classic Deep Purple rocker — the kind of hard rock track that lives from the riff, the groove and the band chemistry captured in the studio.
On the new single, the band is joined by a special guest, global superstar and Grammy-winning guitarist, singer and songwriter Keith Urban on second guitar.
Deep Purple frontman Ian Gillan says of Diablo, “It is all about taking chances. Just for once in your life, do something exciting, step out of the mold, take that curious bend in the road instead of sticking to the highway and do something that will, for the rest of your life, either guide or warn you.” Listen to Diablo, below.
