Material Action 2 N.A.M. is an album by the Japanese noise group Merzbow. It was the first non-cassette Merzbow release. The "2" in the title refers to Yantra Material Action, which was intended as the first Merzbow LP. Chaos was distributed by Eastern Works, which is sometimes listed as the label.[1] The album was later included in the Merzbox.

On June 8, 2016, the album was reissued as a replica LP pressed on colored vinyl by Menstrualrecordings.
