Cosmic Egg is the second studio album by Australian hard rock band Wolfmother, released on 23 October 2009. It is the first album by the second lineup of the band, featuring Ian Peres (bass, keyboards), Aidan Nemeth (guitar) and Dave Atkins (drums), formed in 2009 after original members Chris Ross and Myles Heskett left in August 2008. Upon its release, Cosmic Egg charted at number three on the Australian ARIA Albums Chart, the same position as the band's first album.

The album was recorded between April and May 2009 at Sound City Studios and Sunset Sound Studios in Los Angeles, California. The title of the album comes from a position in yoga described by vocalist and guitarist Andrew Stockdale as "like the fetal pose."

All songs written and composed by Andrew Stockdale, except where noted.
