At least two tracks deserve to be checked out: “Il re di niente” and “La rabbia”... The other stuff is light and melodic... In my opinion they should dare a little bit more on the “prog side” of their inspiration

One day they will be an old band from Italy - if they continue this track and pick up hints like the one Andrea gave above.

La Rabbia is great - Italian 'Heavy Prog'? Il Re di Niente's opening makes me fear both tracks have similar structure (mellow, semi-acoustic start followed by heavier piece), which would make a full album boring. Luckily, it's a completely different story, after the intro, we get a well performed guitar solo. Italian Symphonic comes to mind, especially since the instrumental part lasts for almost three minutes before the (slightly irritating in this track) vocals start.

Nice touch: the band pictures show an acoustic bass guitar at some point - not that common in prog, but definitely a nice touch if used in the right place.
