'''''The Invisible Man''''' is the sixth solo album by [[American Music Club]] singer/songwriter [[Mark Eitzel]], released by [[Matador Records]] in 2001.  It is a more electronic effort by Eitzel, who is known for his more stark, acoustic arrangements.  Eitzel wrote all of the songs on an acoustic guitar, but finished most with a sampler and Pro-tools on his [[Power Mac G4]] in the front room of his house in San Francisco.<ref>{{Cite web |title = Matador Records {{!}} Mark Eitzel|url = http://www.matadorrecords.com/mark_eitzel |publisher=''[[Matador Records]]''|access-date = 2016-02-09}}</ref>
