Calculating Infinity is the first album by American mathcore band The Dillinger Escape Plan. It was released in September 1999 by Relapse Records. Calculating Infinity shows the band's heavier and more complex sound. It would go on to be thought of as a very important work of avant-garde metal. The release is The Dillinger Escape Plan's only album to have Dimitri Minakakis as the lead singer.
