Ian Cohen on new Deafheaven: The most polarizing metal album in recent memory

At the first point, the debate about the new album by Deafheaven will be about the band's change from metal to post-punk/shoegaze. Ian Cohen shares his contribution to the debate in the Ringer: "I’m reflexively inclined to say that 'Infinite Granite' is the most polarizing metal album in recent memory, even though it hardly sounds like a metal album at all. Or, it’s the most polarizing metal album in recent memory because it hardly sounds like a metal album at all". That leaves us with the question of whether it's good music, be it metal or any other genre.
