Chasing The Form is Ostinato's third release, their second on Exile after a self-released debut. Already they sound ancient, with a sound that you would swear has influenced countless other bands. While that may be premature, it is not out of the question that they could be in the big leagues, as a sonic source if not in terms of popular success. Songs like "Goal of All Believers" and "Antiaircraft" drone with deep profound guitars that shimmer and brood with the best. "Between the Years" and "Volant" are already givens for a greatest hits record. To think about what they must sound like live is one the best reasons I have for still listening to music. If you gaze at your shoes while listening to Ostinato, for once you'll find something there at the tip of your foot, something majestic.
