"Infra-Red" is a song by Canadian rock band Three Days Grace. It was their second single off of their sixth studio album Outsider. It topped the Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart in September 2018. It became the band's fourteenth song to top the chart.

Background

After releasing "The Mountain" as the first single from their sixth studio album Outsider, the band chose "Infra-Red" as the album's second single.[2] It was first released as a single on June 12, 2018.[3] A lyric video was first released for the song on July 9, 2018,[4] with the song's lyrics being displayed in a dark warehouse with red tinges of color.[5] In September 2018, the song topped the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart, their fourteenth song to do so, [6] surpassing Van Halen for the act with the most number-one songs on the chart since its inception in 1981.[7] While the studio album cut is a full band, electric performance, an acoustic rendition of the song was recorded in April 2018 for Radio.com.[8]

The song was written by Neil Sanderson, Gavin Brown, Barry Stock, Brad Walst, Matt Walst, Dan Kanter and Isiah Steinberg.[9]
