Still equals one

Metal Hammer Germany 2024 annual review

=1 made its way into several best of 2024 lists. For example, it is at #9 on the Ultimate Guitar Top 20 Albums of 2024. Meanwhile in Germany, it tops Metal Hammer’s 2024 annual review in Hard Rock & Rock category, as evidenced in the January 2025 issue.

Bona saturnalia, y’all!

Thanks to Tobias Janaschke for the evidence.

    Deep Purple’s very great band, in my mind it stands alone on the top 💜
    Why? Well if you’ve to ask ain’t you in the wrong place 😉☺️

    Seriously it’s members are incredible! They’ve been in the game for years and are still equal or even better (according to ‘someone’) compared to their youth. Their productions are fresh and so vibrant and the musicians are among the best, Ian G’s voice is truly brilliant, I don’t know how they do it ☺️
    There has been suggested their diets may be a part of it 🍜🥩🥕🐟☕️Well of course that might be true.
    Nevertheless I’m truly grateful for their hard work and their love for music that shines through every song!

    Looking forward to what may come in ‘25! If it’s true about a new record I’ll be happy to entertain my neighbourhood with decent rock from the only band worth listening to: Deep Purple 🤩

    Well deserved top spot for = 1
    Can’t wait for the sequel = ∞
    BTW, I am surprised that the latest BCC album is in the top 5
    With all respect to Glenn and the rest of the band you guys let yourself down as it lacks any improvisation and it one dimensional with repeated beats and shallow tunes.
    Sorry if I offended anyone but the previous albums speaks volume so I really can’t understand how this happened.
    Peace ✌️
