Pussy's Dead is the third album by Autolux, released on April 1, 2016 as the first release of Danger Mouse's Columbia Records imprint, 30th Century Records. The album was produced by well-known artist and producer Boots. The album's artwork was created by Australian artist Anthony Lister. It was released on CD and 180 gram vinyl.

Reviews were generally positive.Pitchfork reviewer Ron Hart praised the drum tracks, saying, "When you talk about the best drummers of the last 15 years, Autolux's Carla Azar is near the top of that list". Hart also admired the production: "For those of us who have been in Autolux’s corner since they first emerged from Los Angeles, it’s been a bit trying to watch this group hide in plain sight. All kudos go to Boots for parlaying this influence he’s garnered producing the likes of Beyoncé, Run the Jewels and FKA twigs to help craft this record for a band whose breakthrough moment has eluded them for long enough".

Consequence of Sound called the record a "sweaty coupling of independent and mainstream musical aesthetics", while AllMusic writer Timothy Monger said, "On their third record in twelve years, L.A. alt-rock trio Autolux serve up a stark melding of techno-manipulation and dark-toned experimental pop".
