Stereopathic Soul Manure is a 1994album by Beck, released on Flipside Records, comprising mostly home demos, live performances, and abstract noise experiments.
Technically, "Stereopathetic Soulmanure" was an indie release set to accompany "Mellow Gold" in 1994 as part of Beck's innovative contract with Geffen, which allowed him the privilege of putting out records on independent labels alongside his "major" albums.
Fans were treated to three albums coming out in the span of one year, of which "Stereopathetic" is certainly the weirdest, most varied, and ultimately head-scratching offering.
I am a Beck fan but this album turned me off, with the exceptions of "Satan gave me a taco" [which is absolutely hilarious, as well as one of the few musical bright spots on the album], & "Puttin it down" [a great song from beginning to end].

Although a lo-fi recording of a largely uncommercial nature, Stereopathetic Soulmanure is actually Beck's second official album, released, perhaps, to downplay his then-notoriety as a novelty act for his current Top 10 hit "Loser".
Going completely unnoticed at its release, the album remains an interesting and sometimes bizarre curio for hardcore Beck followers.
