A Lethal Dose of American Hatred is the second studio album by American heavy metal band Superjoint Ritual. Former "touring-only" bassist Hank Williams III is featured on this album. Nearly every song begins with a count-in by vocalist 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. A Lethal Dose of American Hatred was the band's last full-length studio album until Caught Up in the Gears of Application was released in 2016. The band disbanded in December 2004 and reformed in October 2014.

"Waiting for the Turning Point" and "Dress Like a Target" both had music videos. As considerably short songs, they both found significant airplay on heavy metal programs and consist largely of live performance.
On May 20, 2022, Revolver Magazine respectively reissued the album on a 2LP vinyl cover alongside Superjoint Ritual's first 20th-anniversary album milestone, Use Once and Destroy. The 20th-anniversary edition art covers were designed by Child Bite's lead vocalist, Shawn Knight.[3]
