Sonic Boom Six are a band from Manchester, UK. They describe themsleves as a Punk-Rock, Hip-Hop, Jump-Up Ska Soundclash.

From Manchester UK’s dynamic musical landscape comes Sonic Boom Six, the most compelling soundclash to rise from the underground for years. Described by Kerrang! as a hefty shot of ska-punk, hip-hop, reggae and jungle, not to mention big, sinuous rock dynamics and hooks SB6 play firmly for the dance-floor while retaining enough power and aggression to be an active fixture of the UK's punk scene. A true product of their city-centre environment, The Boom’s sound as authentic as it is unique. Looking as at home on a festival stage as they are playing at a warehouse party, the band are retaining their grassroots ideation and positive, unifying message as their music steadily permeates a wider international audience.

They have released three album and self released numerous EP's between 2002-06 before their debut album 'The ruff Guide To Genre Terrorism' was released on the Deck Cheese in 2006. Their other two albums 'Arcade perfect' (2007) and 'City Of Thieves' (2009) were released on Rebel Alliance. 2011 has seen them release 4 currently non-album singles.
