(Guardian.com) Cool Marvin Gaye sang "Anger can make you old ... Anger destroys your soul". That's all fine and good, but goes out the window the minute Black Flag, MC5 or Slayer starts playing really loud   (guardian.co.uk) divider line 19

Anger Perfected.

While I don't disagree with the author's thesis, I don't really find Dylan's delivery of "Idiot Wind" particularly understated. Hell, I can hear the bile flying from his lips. It's a toothy snarl set to music.

Hey, Hate is a stronger than love. And just as creative

Really. I have some pretty angry tastes in music, but I'm not sure there are many songs in history quite as hateful as Idiot Wind.

I thrive on angry music. It's better than letting it out on someone else and more productive if you actually pick up an instrument because of it. Oh, and the shows. There is nothing more interactive at a concert than a mosh pit.

I used to have a mix tape called "Angry Music For Angry People" which had everything from Black Flag to Gil Scot-Heron on it. Every time I listened to it something bad would happen... usually it involved getting pulled over by the police.
Eventually someone broke into my car an stole all my tapes (back when people would bother doing such a thing). I hope to this day that the bad karma on that tape visited itself with it's full fury upon that thief.

Brothers and sisters, I wanna see a sea of hands out there, let me see a sea of hands. I want everybody to kick up some noise, I want to hear some revolution out there brothers, I wanna hear a little revolution. Brothers and sisters, the time has come for each and every one of you to decide whether you are gonna be the problem or whether you are gonna be the solution. You must choose brothers, you must choose. It takes five seconds, five seconds of decision, five seconds to realize your purpose here on the planet. It takes five seconds to realize that it's time to move, it's time to get down with it. Brothers, it's time to testify and I want to know, are you ready to testify, are you ready, I give you a testimonial.

FTA: Whether the music is proto-U2 as on the Floyd's Run Like Hell...

Oh screw you Will Byers. The next time you spit those two band names past your crooked Limey teeth in the same sentence, I'll show you angry.

Sometimes I wonder how much further heavy/angry music can go. The Rolling Stones used to be considered too intense and angry for a lot of people, now they are geezers rocking the Super Bowl. With genres like death and black metal, how much further can it go? Those will never get mainstream popularity, but simply making angrier and heavier music hardly seems possible anymore. Musicians will always find creative ways to make music, but will it be this kind of escalation, or is that no longer possible? Hell, even practically unlistenable random machine noise has been done...

I'd love to get a death metal band and go back in time to freak out the people that thought Elvis was scary...

I had that same line of questioning, and then I found Hardcore Gabber Techno. It was just so, heavy, it made anything with normal old guitar-bass-drums seem quaint in comparison. What could possibly be next?

Which one? New York, Minnesota, Hard Rain? It is pretty interesting to watch the mood of this song progress through the version.

They are all a bit angry, the Hard Rain version is special though.
