Italian Progressive death metal outfit syk have unveiled a striking live video for “For To Themselves I Left Them,” filmed during their appearance at Hellfest 2025. The performance captures the band’s raw precision and emotional intensity, translating the apocalyptic vision of eartHFlesh into a visceral act of communion with the audience.

Originally featured as the penultimate chapter of eartHFlesh, the song digests the album’s search for spirit amid ruin: a convergence of technical dissonance, atmosphere, and cathartic release. On stage, Stefano Ferrian (guitars, vocals), Marcello Cravini (guitars, ambient FX), Alan La Roca (bass), and Federico Leone (drums) summon the record’s tension between collapse and transcendence, with Dalila Kayros reprising her haunting guest vocals.

Recorded on June 21st, 2025, at one of Europe’s most iconic metal festivals, this rendition reaffirms syk’s reputation as one of Italy’s most forward-thinking extreme metal acts, bridging the precision of technical death metal with the spiritual desolation of post-black atmospheres.
