Infinite Granite is a major sonic departure from a group who were previously inextricable from the term blackgaze, particularly after the success of 2013's astounding Sunbather. For much of the album, there's only scant traces of black metal influences -- instead of harsh riffs, pummeling blast beats, and cathartic screaming, there's airy guitars, spacious drumming, and clean, patient singing. Justin Meldal-Johnsen's production gives it a vibrant sheen, but it's decidedly closer to a dream pop record than something likely to receive airplay on mainstream rock stations, and there's still a dark undercurrent to its autumnal mood.

Deafheaven have mentioned Radiohead, Ride, Tears for Fears, and even Nina Simone as direct inspirations, and the record additionally has somewhat of an alternative prog sound to it, recalling elements of Smashing Pumpkins and Porcupine Tree. Infinite Granite is a transitional record, but it's an enormously pretty one, and it suggests that their directional shift is an excellent idea that warrants further exploration.
