Originally released in 2008, Pure marked a powerful and exciting chapter in the musical evolution of Pendragon. Led by guitarist and vocalist Nick Barrett, the British progressive rock band embraced a heavier and more contemporary sound while retaining the melodic sophistication that had defined their career. The result was an outstanding album combining atmospheric keyboards, expressive guitar work and emotional vocals with darker progressive influences.
From the monumental opening track “Indigo” to the intense “Eraserhead” and the ambitious “Comatose”, Pure takes listeners on a captivating musical journey filled with contrasts. Nick Barrett's distinctive guitar playing is beautifully complemented by Clive Nolan's atmospheric keyboards, while the dynamic rhythm section provides a powerful foundation. With its combination of melancholic melodies, intricate arrangements and modern production, Pure remains one of the most acclaimed albums in Pendragon's extensive catalogue.
This special 2026 reissue comes as a double LP on Blue & Purple vinyl, featuring two individually coloured records. Presented in a deluxe gatefold sleeve with a beautiful granite-textured finish, this edition offers an exceptionally attractive presentation. A stunning collector's release of a modern progressive rock classic and an essential addition for fans of Pendragon, Marillion, IQ and Arena.
