Italian Progressive Death Metal band SYK have returned with the opening track to their new album “I am the beast.” The new album is titled eartHFlesh and it will arrive from Season of Mist on May 10th, 2024.  

On “I am the beast”, Stefano Ferrian, Federico De Bernardi di Valserra and their new band “issue another savage refusal to surrender to the darkness.” Instead, they hope to “awaken the beast within us all.”   

SYK came into existence in 2013 when Stefano Ferrian and Federico De Bernardi di Valserra decided to embark on a new musical venture following the disbandment of their previous project, .psychofagist.

In early 2023, SYK caught the attention of Season Of Mist, who signed them for the release of their fourth album, eartHFlesh. This album not only marks the band’s latest offering but also signifies their first decade as a band.
