Mahashmashana is the sixth studio album by American musician Josh Tillman under the stage name Father John Misty, released through Sub Pop and Bella Union on November 22, 2024. The album was produced in Los Angeles by Tillman and Drew Erickson with frequent collaborator Jonathan Wilson acting as executive producer.

The album artwork was designed by artist Joe Roberts. Its title refers to the Sanskrit word Mahāśmaśāna (महाश्मशान), meaning "great cremation ground". The album was preceded by the singles, "I Guess Time Makes Fools of Us All", "She Cleans Up", "Screamland" and "Josh Tillman and the Accidental Dose".

"I Guess Time Makes Fools of Us All" was originally included on Tillman's greatest hits album, Greatish Hits: I Followed My Dreams and My Dreams Said to Crawl (2024), released four months earlier. The second single, "Screamland", featuring Alan Sparhawk on guitar, was released on September 17, 2024.
