Miikka Skaffari/FilmMagicFilter is back with their first album in three years. Called Crazy Eyes, the band's seventh studio album will be released April 8. You can listen to the lead single from Crazy Eyes, called "Take Me to Heaven," now on Soundcloud.

"Filter is the mind," says frontman Richard Patrick in a statement. "It's your interpretation or my interpretation. Our thing is to look at people's unexplainable behavior and assess it, using sound. It's a way to approximate the insanity of the human condition."

"The reason this record is so...heavy and strange is it's exactly the opposite of what's popular," Patrick continues. "It's not pretty. It's not cute. It's real."

Following the release of Crazy Eyes, Filter will play sets at the Welcome to Rockville and Carolina Rebellion festivals.
