Songs to Listen to When You're Pissed Off

If you didn't already know, it's not all roses and daises here on DAD. While we love bigging up the tracks and artists that we consider to be a cut above the rest, we also have no problem discussing things that frustrate and confuse us about the dance music scene. There can be a sense of jadedness in the words, but really we just have a lot of love and passion for the electronic music scene, so when something pisses us off, we speak on it. When we're pissed, we don't want to hear Zedd's "Clarity" or the muted, melancholy chill room tones. We need tunes that match our emotion, shit that not only melts faces but rips them completely off your skull. We need tracks to listen to when we're pissed off. Here's what you might find some of us bouncing to if we just can't take it anymore.
