It might be time for some of you to check your hearing if you heard those 2 tracks from Siena Root and think they don't sound extremely Deep Purple influenced.

The organ, the guitar riffs and overall style is closer to Purple than any other single band. You can pick out the actual Purple songs and riffs which were references like Rat Bat Blue.

Of course they aren't a carbon copy but Siena Root are well known as a hugely Purple influenced band around the world for good reason. They have also stated it plainly themselves.

To hear these 2 tracks and argue they sound more like the Stones, the Crowes or the Doors...



Why do you care if people don't think that they sound like DP? If you do then that is fine, everyone hears things differently or else everyone would like the same clothes, the same music, etc.etc.




There's preference and there's objective fact. People can like anything they choose. I didn't say I even liked Siena Root.

I said it's obvious they have a big Deep Purple influence and sound and it has been noted in tons of reviews and recognized by the band itself repeatedly in interviews.

You are free not to like them but if you can't hear the obvious Deep Purple component to their sound, it's because your ear is not particularly sharp.

This isn't even a difficult test question; in any musician context where this comes up, Siena Root are routinely derided as being derivative of Purple.

So sure, you can say, "to me they sound like the Mahavishnu Orchestra" if you like and that's perfectly fine but also perfectly out of touch with the reality of the musical facts.



Iron Maiden always quoted DP as their biggest influence when they started, but sounded nothing like them. Kiss always said the Rolling Stones were their biggest influence, but come on!!
The keyboard player sounds like JL (as indeed I said), but nothing else did. It is not a musical fact, it is an opinion, nothing else.
However if it makes you feel better, and stop you stomping your feet, or questioning my hearing, I will agree they sound like Deep Purple reincarnated.

If you think 'nothing' in Siena Root sounds like Deep Purple while ignoring that the guitarist apes Ritchie's sound on many tunes and even quotes entire melodies and riffs from him while doubling an organ, feel free.

Also feel free to disagree with the overwhelming majority of the press both from and about the band.

Like I said, there are facts but not everyone can perceive them accurately. I could say Sha Na Na sound just like Chick Corea too and it would be my opinion but it would also be incorrect and reveal me to have a tin ear much as you have just done about yourself.

You were trolling indeed. Someone else having a tin ear has no bearing on that.

Thanks for the posts, fdr. The new Avatarium is out and should appeal to Rainbow fans and I would think also DP and UH fans:

Re: Purple inspired bands


The new Siena Root is out:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_V-J5bOJoA

they're a great band, but this time the purple vibe is less evident, rather spacey and psychedelic and, what's worse, they have again a female voice: she's competent and it's still quality stuff but the mood is inevitably different and at least for me less exciting.

Re: Purple inspired bands


Let me mention to you my new band: Blind Golem. We're very much influenced by Purple, Heep, etc. Our first album is out and it also features the late Ken Hensley on one track. Cover art by the great Rodney Matthews.

First single: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RadJxg9LVDM

Album teaser: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jr6zjXpzrbc

Feel free to share your impressions!
