"Horse Bites Dog Cries" is D.I.'s second full-length studio album, which was released in 1986. Although "Horse Bites Dog Cries" was not a commercial success, it has gained a cult following in recent times, and has been regarded by some critics as the D.I.'s best album.

"Horse Bites Dog Cries" was recorded at Casbah Studios in Fullerton, California in 1985 with Chaz Ramirez (of Social Distortion fame). Due to a typo on the album itself, many believe that it was released in 1985, but this appears to be false because its release was delayed until 1986 as to not compete with the band's then-current album "Ancient Artifacts".

"Hang Ten in East Berlin" and "Spiritual Law" were originally recorded on "Ancient Artifacts", which was also released in 1985. "Johnny's Got a Problem" was re-recorded on their third album "What Good Is Grief to a God?".
