Vote for Metamorfosi, the best track of the entire album, is very good one with great soundscapes that i never get tired of hearing.

"Piano parts are really one of Banco’s strengths, or rather the use of different sorts of keyboards. Metamorfosi is full of them, often alone and very gracious, and the song feels more like a classical work on some occasions during the eleven minutes it’s got to its disposal. Being the highlight of the album, transforming back and forth between the lonely ringing piano and rich, more orchestrated parts where the rest of the band gets some time in the spotlight, this is where Banco does what Banco does best, in adding drama to their music."

...and that's why!

BdMS was one of the first R.P.I. (Rock Progressive Italiano) albums I heard, and R.I.P. (Rock Italian Progressivo) is a great track, but for me it's "In Volo" -- the first track I heard of my first BdMS album.  Yeah, it's short, but I really love it, and it just works very well as an opener, for my tastes.  BdMS, though I really like the band, can sometimes be a little too bombastic for me.

BMS debut was one of the first RPI albums I've heard. And R.I.P blew me away, it was a shock, I've never heard something like this before.
Metamorfosi and Il Giardino de Mago are excellent too, but R.I.P stays my favourite, I can't explain why.

To the whole album - now, after listening to lots of Italian prog albums, I can say that nothing can beat Banco debut.
