Biography [link]

The origins of Magnog are in Edmonds, Washington band Space Helmet, which essentially split up into Magnog and Hovercraft, c. 1993. (Magnog's drummer and Hovercraft's guitarist are brothers.) Magnog's lineup consisted of Jeff Reilly (bass, guitar), Dana Shinn (drums), and Phil Drake (guitar), with all three also singing and playing keyboards. After sending three ninety-minute demo tapes of lengthy improvised jams, recorded between 1994 and 1997, to Kranky Records, the trio recorded an album for the label with Jessamine's Andy Brown as producer. The eponymous album was released in 1996, drawing comparisons with early 1970s Pink Floyd and 1970s German Krautrock bands such as Ash Ra Tempel and early Tangerine Dream.[1]

The following year, tracks from the demo tapes were selected for release as the double CD More Weather.The band went on to played the Vienna Jazz Festival and performed with Pearl Jam and Neil Young for the Pearl Jam fan club in Seattle. After the band broke up, Reilly made further records as Octal, including an album for former Spacemen 3 member Sonic Boom's label, Space Age Records.

Magnog returned to live activity with shows in the Pacific Northwest in 2011.[2]

Ain't gonna cry no more

by: Monica

da da da da dum
um um
yeah yeah, oh, ho oh oh
oh wo
um, can I talk to you for a minute?
inseparable, that's how we were
through anything, you were my world
i gave to you, you shared with me
for the love of you, i'd give anything
i would chill with you
you and your crew
never complained 'bout the things you do
but it see it now, how it all went down
can't take no more
don't want you around
never told me the whole truth
now i'm wishing that i knew
the real you...
how could you do this to me?
never hurt so much
i see, plans i made for you and me
they can't be...
these are the last tears that you'll see from me
cause i ain't gonna cry no more
cause i'm sick of you hurting me
i ain't gonna cry no more
'cause you don't deserve me
i ain't gonna cry no more
pack your stuff up and leave
i ain't gonna cry no more
cause i'm tired of you, me and she
and now i can't believe all the things you did
all your secret trips, just to see your kids
what about the crib that i've never been?
is that the one that she lives in?
but soon you'll see
that the man he's not
the "un-love" affair will soon be forgot
and you will miss me, but i won't miss you
you can pull the key, cause now we're through
never told me the whole truth
never wishing that i knew the real you...
you didn't have to do what you did to me
never hurt so much i see
plans we made for you and me
they can't be
these are the last tears that you see from me
used to think that you and me were in love for sure, but iwas wrong because
but you led me on, but i was wrong
but now i found i don't need you around
you gotta bounce
i'm tired
ain't gonna cry
i ain't gonna cry
it's not the fact that it's your baby
but it's the fact that you lied
and you hurt me
pack your stuff and leave
i'm sick of you
i'm through with you
i'm done with you
i'm tired of you
i'm tired of your lies
