Tublatanka is the self-titled debut album of the Slovak rock band Tublatanka released in 1985 by Opus Records. It contains the hit singles Šlabikár and O nás.

Up until 2005 album Patriot (and excluding their first Christmas album Poďme bratia do Betlema), this was the band's only album on which all lead vocals were performed by Ďurinda. All other releases between this record and Patriot have at least one song sung by either bass guitarist Pavol Horváth or guitarist Dodo Dubán, depending on which one was in the band at that time.
