"From religion and mythology, axis mundi is a pathway or bridge linking Earth, Heaven, and Hell... Becuzzi combines three distinct forms of instrumentation - synthesized drones, chanted vocals (samples from actual orthodox liturgical chants, apparently), and heavily distorted guitars. Thus, you have the landscape of Earth represented in the drones, Heaven in the chants, and Hell in the guitars... as a framing for exploration of the nearly two hours of material on this album, it works...
Axis Mundi is yet another excellent addition to the Becuzzi oeuvre. Comparisons to Sunn O))) and drone metal are appropriate, but Becuzzi cannot be so easily pigeonholed" (Avant Music News).
