Their second LP, "Body Samples", was completed in April 1985 and released on Germany's Dossier Records. Although most of the tracks on the album featured harsh sounds similar to their first LP, "Body Samples" also had more layered, textural moments, including melodic synthesizer-based ambience and primal drumming. According to the liner notes in the 1990 CD reissue of "Body Samples", the layered approach on some tracks was due to the group's acquisition of a four-track reel-to-reel recorder, which gave the band more freedom than their previous live-to-cassette recording methods. Also during 1985, the band released "Feet Hacked Rails" on Dossier under the pseudonym "The Art Barbeque", which strayed further from noise into more melodic and rhythmic territory; some of the material from "Feet Hacked Rails" appears on the 1990 CD reissue of "Body Samples", along with some tracks from the earlier cassette-only release "Shitslipper".
