[4] On June 9, 2021, Deafheaven announced Infinite Granite, simultaneously releasing its lead single, "Great Mass of Color".
"[17] Jem Aswad of Variety wrote that the band "continues their progression as one of the most innovative and powerful rock acts of the past 20 years.
"[14] In a less favorable review, David Weaver of Clash wrote, "There are some real moments of beauty on the record - 'In Blur' aches and sparkles, whilst singles 'Great Mass Of Colour' and 'The Gnashing' showcase a band adept at building beautiful soundscapes even with the guitars turned down - but at a certain point, the album suffers from the lack of depth in Clarke's vocals, or range in his melodies.
"[12] Christina Wenig of Metal Hammer praised the album's songwriting and production and the band for attempting to change their sound, but ultimately felt that "somewhere along the way, Deafheaven have lost some of the intensity that had previously made them irresistible.
"[18] All lyrics are written by George Clarke; all music is composed by DeafheavenCredits adapted from the liner notes of Infinite Granite.
