Now What?! is the 19th studio album by Deep Purple.

It was produced by Bob Ezrin and is the band's first studio album in over seven years, since Rapture of the Deep was released in late 2005.

Two songs are dedicated to Deep Purple founding member Jon Lord, who died in July 2012 - Uncommon Man and Above and Beyond.

Uncommon Man is partly inspired by the classical composition Fanfare for the Common Man, and features a synthesizer-generated fanfare theme composed by Don Airey.
