It's music rage, which is like road rage, only more righteous. When you get road rage, a tiny part of you knows you're being a jerk, but when you get music rage, you're carrying out the will of God, and God wants these people dead

Nick Hornby
About This Quote

There are few things in this world that are more satisfying than getting revenge on music lovers. Music is the language of the world, and listening to it is a privilege reserved for the few. When you're on the receiving end of some highly specific opinions about the music you love, you're bound to get pissed. And you do get pissed, because some peoples' tastes are so constricting that they make you want to stab them with a rusty spoon.

And that's when music rage sets in. It's not road rage, because you're not angry at another driver. It's not street rage, because you're not angry at anyone in particular.

You don't need any kind of physical release when your anger boils over. All you need is an iPod loaded with some of the most caustic music ever produced by mortal man. Use this quote to get people riled up!
