Funkatron is the debut studio album of Cult of Jester, released in 1998 by Flaming Fish. The song "John Carpenter", which originally appeared on the Awaiting the Dawn various artists compilation, was released on the 2017 digital remaster.
Reception The Phantom Tollbooth commended the Funkatrons humor but criticized the lyrics for being "anti-Christian", calling it an "impressive yet uninspiring hour's worth of music that will either offend, intrigue, or amuse you." Despite this, the critic said "I found the album to be well layered with a solid mix, and a great effort all the way musically" and "every song has a killer groove or loop in there somewhere, and when it hits, it hits hard"
