The criteria of exceptionality are all here:
The two best groups of the Italian independent scene (and excuse me if I laugh at the expression Italian independent scene) who come together and swap instruments for a split warmly welcoming each other; the best Italian label (La Tempesta); an unusual format (10 inches) with an attached CD (because the world isn't what it used to be) released in 666 hand-numbered copies. This alone would be enough to encourage the fetishists to shell out some cash if it weren't for the fact that the content is even better than the container.
It begins with NOSTALGIA. 8 minutes and 22 seconds that expand on the discourse started at the end of Dell'Impero Delle Tenebre. Of Post-Hardcore, myths, and legends remain only trails in this song with a strange flavor. Melodic at the start, exciting, chaotic with the arrival of Zu (at times, for a good two minutes, it feels like listening to an Evol made with wind instruments), Francone Mussida-style riff with Mark Deutrom on bass, more riffs on riffs, snare shots, and an ending crescendo...

DO IT! 3 minutes and 27 seconds of brutality stamped by Zu with Capovilla on voice and Favero on guitar (voice and bass of Teatro degli Orrori for those living on the Moon) where Scratch Acid come back to life in a tailspin of basses that smash floors, crashing onto a drum that fragments, fragments, and fragments again with a lazy declamatory voice and sax that slices the eardrums.

A little over 11 minutes of violent and sublime music that ruins the party for too many self-styled tricolor rockers. 11 minutes, perhaps too little to scream miracle, but enough for me to last a while in the cultural (and otherwise) desert in which we live and to forget the havoc of the May Day concert.
Uh, finished. Review too serious, to be laughed at: DO IT!
