Album Summary
Six is the second album by English alternative rock band Mansun, released in September 1998 via Parlophone. It was released in the UK and Europe on 7 September 1998, and in the US on 20 April 1999, with an alternative running order, different artwork, and the re-recorded single version of the title track. In an interview prior to the release of Six, Paul Draper stated that the "interlude" "Witness to a Murder (Part Two)" was included to separate the album into two parts as a tribute to old-style vinyl albums. In a rave review for Uncut, critic Steve Sutherland described Six as "the most ridiculous, confusing, complicated, over-reaching, frustrating, inventive, hyperactive, surprising and liberating record to yet appear from the post-Britpop stable." Jon Garrett of PopMatters conceded that the album is "not for everyone" but was impressed by its "debauched beauty", calling it "the sound of a band collectively snubbing its fan base and smashing expectation to spectacular effect".
