Violent By Design is the sophomore album by underground hip hop group Jedi Mind Tricks. The album is considered by most to be the group's finest work, and has become one of the most beloved and influential underground releases of its time. MC Jus Allah joined Vinnie Paz and Stoupe the Enemy of Mankind as the third group member for the release. The album was originally released in 2000 on JMT's Superegular Records, and was re-released in 2004 on Babygrande Records, with 3 bonus tracks, "Untitled", "Retaliation Remix" and "Blood Runs Cold". Interestingly, many songs from this album feature selections of poems by British poet Wilfred Owen, although they are somewhat removed from their original context.
