Hospodi is a studio album by the Polish black metal band Batushka, released on July 12, 2019 through Metal Blade Records. It was released under the guidance of Bartek Krysiuk with members from the original line-up.

'Hospodi' is a concept album based on the Orthodox Liturgy of Death. Many people compare this album to the band's debut due to the difference in sound and writing, and due to the infamous fallout of the original group. In contrast to Batushka's first album 'Litourgiya', 'Hospodi' has more atmospheric emphasis, and each song flows seamlessly into the next, creating a start-to-finish listening experience. The band's film director, Hiatsyntos, directed a short film for the album called 'Parastas', which was split into 5 music videos to promote the album.
