Zzyzx is the third studio album of the Norwegian industrial rock band Zeromancer. The album takes its title from the name of a road leading to, and named for, Zzyzx, California.

This album saw Zeromancer approaching a lighter sound with a more mainstream direction, but also more meaningful lyrics. The album spawned two singles, "Erotic Saints" followed by "Famous Last Words".
