Deafheaven have shared their new song “The Gnashing,” the second single from the band’s upcoming LP Infinite Granite.
Like its predecessor “Great Mass of Color,” “The Gnashing” showcases a stylistic shift for the San Francisco metal act, with frontman George Clarke’s vocal approach more melodic and decipherable than the black metal howlings that feature on previous Deafheaven albums.
Infinite Granite marks Deafheaven’s fifth album and first since their acclaimed 2018 effort, Ordinary Corrupt Human Love, which placed at Number Five on Rolling Stone’s 20 Best Metal Albums of 2018 list.
For the new album, Deafheaven teamed up with producer Justin Meldal-Johnsen (M83, Paramore, Metric), with longtime collaborator Jack Shirley on board as engineer for part of Infinite Granite, due out August 20th via Sargent House.
