"Special Herbs, Vols. 5 & 6" is an album of instrumental works released by Daniel Dumile under the Metal Fingers moniker. As with the other installments of the "Special Herbs" series, each track is named for a herb or similar flora.

This album, aside from the bonus tracks, also forms the last thirteen tracks of the Metal Fingers series' previous volume, Special Herbs, Vols. 4, 5 & 6, due to the different record labels the various albums in the series were released on. This is the last volume of the series with such track listing overlaps.
