Heavy Metal godfathers Deep Purple are hard at work on a new album according to bassist Roger Glover (on right in picture above)

Glover says they've completed 14 songs with producer Bob Ezrin and will choose the best 11 or 12 for the upcoming release which is tentatively scheduled to be released February 2013.

This is the follow-up to their 2005 project, Rapture of the Deep.
