''Cosmo's Factory'' is the fifth Album by American band Creedence Clearwater Revival , released in 1970 (see 1970 In Music ).

The peak of a prolific streak, ''Cosmo's Factory'' was Creedence's fifth album in less than two years. It was a major commercial success, reaching #1 on the Billboard Pop Albums chart, and spawning no less than six top 5 singles. More amazingly, it also reached #11 on what was then the Billboard Soul Albums chart, a crossover feat nearly unheard of for a white pop/rock band.

The name of the album comes from the warehouse in Berkeley where the band rehearsed. Bandleader John Fogerty was so insistent on practicing (nearly every day) that drummer Doug "Cosmo" Clifford began referring to the place as "the factory".

"Up Around the Bend" was later covered by Finnish Rock band Hanoi Rocks .
