You’re my hero.  
Limp Biskit’s _Break Stuff_ is good for that, but I find that it also puts me into that mood even if I weren’t already.

My personal themesong when I’m angry at the world is usually Pantera’s _By Demons Be Driven_, though I sometimes times substitute that with _Fucking Hostile_, from the same album.

Lately though it’s been a song by Mudvayne, whose title escapes me.

I must say that when I’m rather angry and upset at the same time I love listening to \*\*Gone Away \*\* by **The Offspring**.

Its either that or something by \*\*Disturbed \*\* or trusty ol’ **Metallica.**

These days …

**Dismantled** “Armed and Ready”  
_I am all armed and ready  
My faith is all strapped  
The blood runs colder  
And the days drain past  
I go on  
I’m ready for war._

**A Perfect Circle** “Passive”  
_So wake up and face me  
Don’t play dead because maybe someday  
I will walk away and say  
“You fucking disappoint me.  
Maybe you’re better of this way.”_

**Tool** “Hooker with a penis”  
_I’ve got some advice for you, little buddy  
Before you point your finger,  
You should know that I’m the man  
If I’m the fucking man, then you’re the fucking man as well  
So you can point that fucking finger up your ass._

**Nine Inch Nails** “Burn”  
_Something inside of me  
Has opened up its eyes  
Why did you put it there?  
Did you not realize  
Something inside of me  
It screams the loudest sound  
Sometimes I think I could …  
I’m gonna burn this whole world down._

_AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!_

**Nine Inch Nails**  
“Gave Up”  
_Smash up my sanity  
smash up integrity  
smash up what I believe in  
smash up what’s left of me  
smash up my everything  
smash all I thought was true  
I smash myself to pieces  
I don’t know what else to do_

“Happiness in Slavery”  
_Don’t open your eyes, you won’t like what you see  
the blind have been blessed with security  
don’t open your eyes take it from me  
i have found  
you can find  
happiness is slavery_

Reel Big Fish “You Don’t Know” aka the Fuck Off song.

It’s hard to beat this one for this particular category:

> [@Reel Big Fish](#):

> Well, first of all, I’d like to say FUCK OFF!

You can hear a rather poor-quality clip here: [Reel Big Fish’s Website](http://www.reel-big-fish.com/index2.html). Click on Music, then you’ll find it on the “Why do they rock so hard?” album.
