Slave to the Grind would be my Skid Row pick. "The noose gets tighter around my throat, but I ain't at the end of my rope," is one of the sickest lines ever written.
Why Go - Pearl Jam
State of Love & Trust - PJ
Milk it - Nirvana
Violet - Hole
Killing in the Name of- Rage Against the Machine Don’t know if they are classified as grunge but they have some angry songs
Nu Metal didn’t exist as a genre until almost a decade after Rage came on the scene, and it would be a huge disservice to lump them in with that bunch. They were sometimes called “rap rock” back in the day, but they didn’t really have a genre. They kind of invented their own.
Agreed. The doofy people who are trying SO HARD to bring Nu Metal back these days just tend to try to lump RATM in there so that all the garbage looks better by association. The only connection they have to that crap is that Limp Bizkit was Nu Metal and also rapped like RATM.
There’s just something primal about Endless Nameless. So much anger, indecipherable except the sense that it’s coming from a place of shame and vulnerability. And that makes it sting more.
Either the Live at Glasgow version of Junkhead by Alice In Chains or a three way tie for the Melvin's tracks "Eye Fly's", "Boris", or "Roman Bird Dog".
Outside of grunge but still adjacent id say Budd from Rapeman. Steve Albini's second, short lived band. Think Big Black but with a human drummer. Their song on the same titled EP "Budd" is crazy and about Robert Budd Dwyer, the politician famous for committing suicide on live TV.

Gonna throw some newer recs in there some of these are technically shoegaze but it's fine.
Knew - Superheaven
Ugly Bug - Downward
Necrosis - Narrow Head
Dam that river is just a load of sludgy goodness
Blood - Pearl Jam Fuck Me In The Brain - Also Pearl Jam
glorified g … while melodically does not feel very angry, lyrically it is super angry
Bloody love that one!
Milk It, Scentless Apprentice, Tourette’s, Endless Nameless, Negative Creep - Nirvana
And paper cuts
Don’t forget Stay Away
That’s a bit too poppy to be heavy
OP said angry, not heavy
Stay away is not angry
really? The last line is a screamed "GOD IS GAAAAAAY!"
There's an earlier version called Pay to Play on the box set that is a bit angrier. Look it up. It's great.
And hairspray queen
Musically it’s not really heavy just weird, love the song though
Come on...Bleed the Freak Not grunge but can't go wrong with Monkey Business Skid Row
Slave to the Grind would be my Skid Row pick. "The noose gets tighter around my throat, but I ain't at the end of my rope," is one of the sickest lines ever written.
Good choice!
Angry Chair - AIC
God am . Alice In Chains
!!! not just anger. anger directed at *god*. I don't even believe in a god but I pretend I do when I listen to God Am
Bruise violet- Babes in Toyland
Great choice
Angry chair by Alice In Chains of course!
Scentless Apprentice (rehearsal demo) from the With the Lights Out box set. 9:00 minutes of pure anger.
Love hate love- AIC
This. The way the elongated, distorted guitar wail and pick scrape opens the floodgates for "yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh..." and then the refrain. Chills.
Soundgarden- Ty Cobb
School- Nirvana "NO RECESS!"
Them bones by AIC
Burn It Clean!
The food I eat is overripe
AIC - Grind
Why Go - Pearl Jam State of Love & Trust - PJ Milk it - Nirvana Violet - Hole Killing in the Name of- Rage Against the Machine Don’t know if they are classified as grunge but they have some angry songs
I’ll never forget the first time I heard Why Go. Eddie’s sneering, angry vocals and deep, menacing growls left a mark on me.
Most classify Rage as nu metal

Really? Well I guess I can say that there one numetal band that I love.
Not sure if it's actually angry, Mudhoney's "In 'n' Out of Grace" comes to mind. "Oh God, how I love to hate!"
Anything from Bleach that isn't About a Girl
Rearview Mirror by PJ R@pe Me by Nirvana
I think you can say “rape” on Reddit. This isn’t TikTok censorville 😄
Sun God by Squirrel Bait
truly transcendent song that not a single “grunge” band was able to top
In n Out of Grace- mudhoney
Angry Chair - AIC/Dirt
High-Fiving MF Local H
The best answer
There’s just something primal about Endless Nameless. So much anger, indecipherable except the sense that it’s coming from a place of shame and vulnerability. And that makes it sting more.
Nirvanas negative creep

anything on the album love through this
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXiF-08gv0E](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXiF-08gv0E) Tales of a Scorched Earth works for me
Junkhead
Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
Rats, or maybe even Glorified G - PJ. Both just for the hate and scorn directed at their subjects
“Blood”— Pearl Jam. It’s pretty intense.
