Six Demon Bag is the second album by experimental rock group Man Man. The newly reconfigured Philadelphia band, known mainly for their carnivalesque, acquired-taste sound and well-received live shows, return with a second LP. It received generally favorable reviews and calculated a score of 79 out of 100 on Metacritic based on 17 reviews.
Honus Honus discussed the differences with their first album:
“ | I feel like the first album had a lot of the same emotions going on but the rough production value kind of obscured the sentiments. I can't even hear half the lyrics I'm singing on the first record. It's a bit of a charm but at the same time it makes for a difficult listening experience. I won't go into exact details but the period of my life in which Van Helsing Boombox was written is definitely not making any highlight reel. Dark days. | ” |
The album was placed on Obscure Sound's best albums of 2006 at number 34 and Pitchfork's Top 50 albums of 2006 at number 20.
