A Lethal Dose of American Hatred is the second and final album by heavy metal band Superjoint Ritual. Former "touring only" bassist Hank Williams III played on this album. Nearly every song begins with a count-in by Phil Anselmo. "Waiting for the Turning Point" and "Stealing a Page or Two From Armed & Radical Pagans" are finished versions of the two bonus demos released on their first album, Use Once and Destroy.
