Dictated Aggression is the fifth full-length studio album from American crossover thrash band, M.O.D. It was released in 1996 on Music For Nations and follows 1994's studio album, Devolution. Blackout Records subsequently re-issued the album with a different cover and enhanced CD content of a live concert in France.
This would be the band's last album until 2003's The Rebel You Love to Hate, although Billy Milano did appear on Bigger Than the Devil – an S.O.D. reunion album in 1999.
