Six Demon Bag is the second album by experimental rock group Man Man, known mainly for their carnivalesque, acquired-taste sound and well-received live shows. It received generally favorable reviews and calculated a score of 79 out of 100 on Metacritic based on 17 reviews.[1]

Honus Honus discussed the differences between this album and 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 list of the best albums of 2006 at number 34[2] and Pitchfork's list of the top 50 albums of 2006 at number 20.[3]
