Weightless is priceless…

Stuporhero is pleased to announce that Weightless, our third album, is available as a free download here on our website. 

In addition to high quality 320 kbps MP3s, we're offering AIFF (Audio Interchange File Format) and FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) files.

We thought long and hard about what to do with this new batch of songs and determined that the typical avenues of producing, distributing, and promoting an album are cost prohibitive to the band at this time.  We’ve decided that releasing the music for free is the best hope we have at present to achieve our goal, which is for our music to be heard, shared, and hopefully enjoyed by as many people as possible.

While we’re in the generous spirit, we’re also offering free downloads of our first two albums, It Would Be Nice To Wake Up and Last Star Shining.

Also available for free download on our website is Lo-Fi Lounge Volume 1, a collection of 4-track demos and studio outtakes.

Please help us spread the word.  Life is expensive…Stuporhero songs are free!

What people are saying about Stuporhero...

  Seattle Powerpop Blog:  "Stuporhero’s lovely new album Weightless consists of nine charming, skillfully arranged, concise little pop songs... ranging in mood from giddy to melancholic to pensive to dreamy and it holds together well like a modest, scaled down Pet Sounds or In the Aeroplane Over the SeaBe warned: you may find this sweet little pop confection quite addictive."

Tastes Like Chicken:  "Give this band some of your attention."

West Coast Performer
:  "Poised to bridge the pop/punk
gap, the dynamic duo and mannequin sidekick revitalize
experimental indie with a much needed — and perhaps overdue — twist."

Seattle Sound:
  "Well-practiced and well-versed in the art
of fuzz and wit..."

NPR:
  "With songs about super balls, death robots, and the
dubiously anthematic 'Punk Like You',  Stuporhero's latest
album, Last Star Shining, is perfect driving music… if you're
driving the Batmobile." 

All Music Guide:  "The Seattle duo (and their mannequin
drummer) return with another slew of stupor-pendous songs
on Last Star Shining, the pair's sophomore set. Across sixteen
tracks and a hidden number, Jen Garrett and Will Troy's
breezy, iridescent, not quite lo-fi, music shines bright."
