Mogwai not Moogwai...

If you listen to Mogwai and really take in the music, it is kinda like a rock version of trance, or should I dare say acustical version of trance. Look, all the trance elements are there. A repeating arpeggio or ostanato (sp?) that grows over time and trances the listener with a repeating stong beat playing to it in time. The songs build up, come down, and explode (just like trance). Anyway, I just felt like sharing that discovery.

so what exactly do you mean?

Ok, let me clarify:

Mogwai is a shoegazer rock band. Their music sounds like trance without the synths and 909's. Check out "Mogwai Fear Satan" for a good example of a Ferry Corsten style rock song.

I've seen Mogwai live. They say their genre is "post rock", although I'm sure it doesn't mean much to most people.
As for it being like trance. Na! I don't think the structure is too similar, its how a lot of music is made....
