Super Roots 2 is the second installment of the Super Roots EP series by Japanese experimental band Boredoms. Released as a 3" CD, it was mailed to people in Japan who completed and sent a survey card enclosed with the Japanese release of Chocolate Synthesizer. Because of its short duration, it was the only Super Roots not to be rereleased by Vice Records in 2007.[1][2][3][4]

Deborah Sprague of Trouser Press stated that the album "will keep you on the edge of your seat, if only for the numerous long silences that cleave songs like 'Magic Milk' and 'White Plastic See-Through Finger'."[6]
