Magnetic is the tenth studio album by American rock band Goo Goo Dolls, released on June 11, 2013, through Warner Bros. Records. The album is available on CD, Vinyl and as a digital download.

The recording process took place during the latter half of 2012 and into early 2013. Rzeznik thought of the album title during a phone conversation with his manager, who told Rzeznik to "think of a title for the record. Try to use one word." Magnetic was the first word that came to Rzeznik's mind. This is the last album to feature drummer Mike Malinin who left the band in December 2013.

During an interview with UpVenue on February 16, 2011, Rzeznik confirmed that he had been writing new material for a new album during the Something for the Rest of Us Tour. "I've actually been experimenting, in this last week, while we've been out on this tour, just writing lyrics and then figuring out the melodic structures," said Rzeznik, "We can't wait another four years to put another album out; that's just a ridiculous waste of time."

On August 9, 2012, the band announced that it had started recording its tenth studio album. In a column for Japanese Rock magazine InRock, Robby Takac revealed some details about recording sessions for the new album. The new album is scheduled for an early 2013 release on the Warner Brothers record label. The band will use multiple producers like it did on Something for the Rest of Us. In August and September it had various recording sessions with John Shanks at Henson Recording Studios in Hollywood, CA and in October 2012 with Gregg Wattenberg at Quad Studios in New York City. More recording sessions are planned with Greg Wells in Los Angeles in November 2012.

On January 18, 2013, the band released the first single from Magnetic entitled "Rebel Beat". Later on February 15, 2013, the Goo Goo Dolls tweeted an exclusive first look at the Magnetic album cover. On April 3, 2013, the band announced that the release date would be pushed back from May 7 to June 11. More than a month later on July 19, 2013, the Goo Goo Dolls announced its second single from Magnetic will be "Come to Me".
