RAPTURE OF THE DEEP

Not as good as Purpendicular, better than Abandon, on the same level with Bananas but sounds more aggressive. Very even album with good sound and musicianship, Gillan's singing is on a very good level. There are several standing out track - the title song, Before Time Began, MTV. Others seem not so memorable. In general, ROTD won't give you many musical revelations, but if you like previous DP efforts you will probable like this one too.
