Some people have an emergency chocolate bar in their top drawer at work. I have half a dozen YouTube bookmarks.

Ministry has a song called “Lion’s Mouth” that appears at the end of Timothy Leary’s farewell album. I’m at work and can’t link, but it would fit the bill.

Thanks for the suggestions, lots to check out.

The Minus Five’s eponymous album has several entries worthy of inclusion on the playlist, including “Bought A Rope”, “Original Luke” and of course “With A Gun”:

_I’ll kick your sister’s ass  
I’m going to take your brother’s face and smash it in the grass  
It’s no wonder I am spiral-bound_

And “The Knife” by Genesis sort of fit my mood yesterday.

_I’ll give you the names of those you must kill  
All must die with their children  
Carry their heads to the palace of old  
Hang them high, let the blood flow  
Now, in this ugly world  
Break all the chains around us_

OK, I have a link to the song I mentioned. This album had the lyrics to everything it contained printed in the packaging. Except this song. For this one all it said was “Listen carefully”. Which I did, and I still don’t know the lyrics. But I think this song has chaos written all over it. My opinion.

I was thinking about a song from that same album, and almost went with “Burning Inside”, but something about the Leary track always impressed me.

[Mudshovel](https://youtu.be/FuAC9YIC2Bs) **Staind**.

[Effigy23](https://youtu.be/Vk-YBgbV4m4). **American Head Charge**

ETA: mudshovel was the song i chose for my last bodybuilding show. The energy was perfect for me: destruction and rage; channeled into an artistic creation of self-expression.

I just thought of one more.

[The Devil in I](https://youtu.be/XEEasR7hVhA) **Slipknot**.

While their costumes are silly and halloweenish, this song has great energy. Classic headbanger.

I’m amazed that in a thread with this title, no one has suggested:

Swamp Dogg: [**Total Destruction to Your Mind**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzGMkmRbHBw)

Or even the best cover of this song by [_Stoneground_](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9n6p9Mbhzs)
