'''''Stereopathetic Soulmanure''''' is the 1994 [[debut]] [[full-length]] [[album]] by [[alternative rock]] musician [[Beck]], released on [[Flipside (fanzine)|Flipside]] in 1994, a week before the appearance of his [[Geffen]] debut ''[[Mellow Gold]]''. The album comprises mostly home [[demo]]s, live performances, and abstract noise experiments. Although a [[lo-fi]] recording of largely anti-commercialistic nature, ''Stereopathetic Soulmanure'' is actually Beck's third official recording, released before the success of "Loser." Going completely unnoticed on its release, the album remains an interesting and sometimes bizarre curio for hardcore Beck followers. Beck would soon return with another independent release, the plaintive and mostly acoustic ''[[One Foot in the Grave (album)|One Foot in the Grave]]''—his third album of 1994—before recording his [[major label]] follow-up ''[[Odelay]]''.

#* This is included on most discs, but not all. This track is also "locked".
There is also an alternate pressing that separates "No Money No Honey" over tracks 7 and 8 and breaks parts of "One Foot in the Grave" and "Aphid Manure Heist" over tracks 12, 13 and 14, which causes all tracks after "Crystal Clear (Beer)" to be off from the track listing on the back cover. This pressing also omits the short snippet of dialog called "Ken" and keeps the bonus noise on the same track as "Modesto". This pressing causes some online track listings, such as the track listing at [[Allmusic]], to be incorrect. The way the track listing should be, on the alternate pressing, is as follows:
# "Pink Noise (Rock Me Amadeus)" – 2:57
# "Rowboat" – 3:45

# "No Money No Honey" – 2:07
# "8.6.82" – 0:37
