Magnetic North is the fourth full-length album released by the hardcore band Hopesfall.

Josh Brigham, one of the guitarists and the only founding member remaining during the recording of the album, has said: "Our music has always been spacey and heavy, and we use those roots, combined with our love of grunge-era Smashing Pumpkins, Dinosaur Jr., HUM, and Pixies, we add some bigger, heavier riffs.

[citation needed] "Bird Flu" was previously released on the compilation album Trustkill Takeover Vol.

In February 2017, the album was released as a 2-LP vinyl set through Equal Vision Records, and included "Saskatchewan" and an untitled demo as bonus tracks.

The label had no choice but to pick a song to remove in order to meet deadlines for an international release.
