Their second album, Wood/Metal/Plastic/Pattern/Rhythm/Rock, was released in 2016 on the Los Angeles-based label . For their 2019 album, I Was Real, they expanded to a larger ensemble of players, which the Guardian described as "adding yet more depth to their placeless, gripping grooves". Since then they have self-released a series of live recordings through Bandcamp, including Power Failures and the Social Music at Troost series. (en)
