Tostaky is an album by French rock band Noir Désir. It was released in France in 1992 on the Barclay label.

The word "tostaky" is a slang contraction of the Spanish expression "todo está aquí" (everything is here), one of the slogans used by Mexican revolutionaries led by Emiliano Zapata.

The French edition of Rolling Stone magazine named this album the 2nd greatest French rock album (out of 100).[1]
