“Magnum Spire Hotel” is a concept album built around a haunted high-rise hotel, using each “floor” as a setting for different psychological states and narratives. Thematically the record links this fictional setting to addiction, mental illness, and confrontation with personal trauma.
The album was released digitally on 25 April 2025, following 2022’s full-length “HYPERCULT,” with production, mixing, mastering and co-writing handled by Psyclon Nine frontman Nero Bellum.
About Our Frankenstein
Based in Rancho Santa Margarita in Orange County, Our Frankenstein is an industrial rock / gothic metal project formed in 2013 by vocalist Ryan Frankenstein and keyboardist Ivan Vermillion, initially under the name “Cherry Frankenstein” before settling on the current moniker. The present recording and live lineup consists of Ryan Frankenstein (vocals), Ivan Vermillion (keyboards), Nick Chase (guitar), Joseph Straza (bass) and Sam Sandoval (guitar).
The band launched into the scene with singles such as “From the Grave” (2016) and “You Are a Witness” (2017), followed by the four-track “Scorpion Eye EP” in May 2018.
In 2020, Our Frankenstein issued the album “A Pale Horse,” offering a blend of gothic rock and industrial metal, before releasing the full-length “HYPERCULT” in June 2022. Production and mastering credits were shared between Seven Dunbar and Nero Bellum, with tracks like “T.S.O.V.,” “Inhale” and “Addiction Game”.
A run of singles and EPs in 2022–2024 followed including “Bubonic,” “Internal Corruption,” “Illuminate,” “Judas Dance” and “Kerosene”. It led directly into the current album “Magnum Spire Hotel,” released in April 2025 as the follow-up to “HYPERCULT.”
Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
