Aztlán is the sixth studio album by Mexican rock band Zoé. It was released on 18 April 2018 through EMI and Universal. The album is the band's first work in four years since Prográmaton (2013). Aztlán was produced by longtime Zoé producer Phil Vinall, and Craig Silvey, collaborating with Zoé for the first time. Silvey's influence brought new sounds and recording techniques to this album and helped set it apart from Prográmaton. Lead singer León Larregui has described the genre of the album as rock or rock-pop.

Aztlán was included on Rolling Stone's list of 10 Best Latin Albums of 2018 and later went on to win the Grammy Award for Best Latin Rock, Urban or Alternative Album on February 10, 2019. Previously, the album had been nominated for the Latin Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album but did not win. As a result, the Grammy win came as a complete surprise to the band, as they did not attend the award ceremony, with the band members finding out about winning the award through tweets and chat messages. The album was supported by three singles: "Azul", "Hielo", and "No hay mal que dure".
