They're kinda borderline between punk and metal, but L7 was pretty "angry" (particularly Everglade).  I see I was beat to the Sex Pistols.

EDIT: Feeling kinda stupid.  Looked again and L7's considered grunge (though they're definitely the heavier side of grunge, ala Alice in Chains).
Experience bij!

That song does make me want to slash my wrists.

Talking Heads made many great songs, but I think Psycho Killer could fit your playlist best.

Also, Smashing Pumpkins' Ava Adore and Bullet With Butterfly Wings.

Sam Hall, by Johnny Cash.  The Man in Black sounds fucking pissed.
I Will Survive, by Cake
Les, by Ben Harper and the INnocent Criminals.

An example would be Garbage - Not My Idea.  For the most part, I can actually believe the singer is angry while singing the song.

What about Lily Allen's Smile?
I want my mother fucking points!

What about Lily Allen's Smile?

The anger in the lyrics is the cold kind, and the music's not angry at all.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Saw him perform three days ago, excellent as always (and still angry).

Shit Goat.

:pinch:

For me, drinking copious amounts of beer & jamming the live version of "The Midnight Rambler" by the Rolling Stones always makes me want to go out & beat somebody's ass.  Or, conversely, help me emote enough in my garage to keep from going out & beating somebody's ass.  Six of one, half a dozen of another...

Other "angry" songs as they occur to me:

"Who Do You Love" by George Thorogood
"If You Want Blood" by AC/DC
"Eve Of Destruction" by Barry McGuire
"Fortunate Son" by CCR
"Woman" by Anti-Nowhere League (my vote for Angriest Song Ever)

Pink Floyd: One of My Turns.

Or the whole Wall album, actually.
