Bloodrock 2 is the second album by the Texas rock band Bloodrock,[1] released on October 5, 1970, through Capitol Records. The album was certified Gold by the RIAA on January 3, 1990.[2]

In Spring 1971, the gory extended album track "D.O.A." became the biggest hit of Bloodrock's career when it was issued in edited form as a single.

The motivation for writing the song was explained in 2005 by guitarist Lee Pickens. "When I was 17, I wanted to be an airline pilot," Pickens said. "I had just gotten out of this airplane with a friend of mine, at this little airport, and I watched him take off. He went about 200 feet in the air, rolled and crashed."[3]
