Checked them out.

Opera Planet is sort of an album intro - slow keyboards, an orchestra like sound, and a band kicking in at the end - nice build up, but unclear if it is supposed to be a longer track or move into Anima Mundi (hard to tell because of the way MySpace operates). Anima Mundi is quite bombastic, a very nice symphonic/heavy track. My Italian language knowledge is limited, but from what I hear, I concluded that the bass player has a strong say in composition, and the text seems to say that he wrote the music for an Anima Munid EP, so I wasn't that far off.
Zyklon B (awful title, but that's my opinion) is far more relaxed at first, and very well sung - then develops into a similar style as the other one. Very well done, once more.

Andrea - this sounds very good, could you check if this EP is still available (for sale)? If it is, we could propose them for inclusion as being self released.
