Songs to get you through a break up

OK, so I've just broken up with my boyfriend of two years and now of course, all the songs in my spotify playlists are reminding me of him.

Anyone know of any decent tracks so I can start building a new playlist. I'm into rock/indie stuff but at the moment I'm not that fussy - as long as the songs aren't too romantic!

I'd recommend songs by people he didn't like. My girlfriend of two and a bit years broke up with me, and the music i listened to was all the stuff she hated, a la Weezer. Although this song is angry break up too, which is even better

Taylor Swift - sift through the lovey dovey ones and there are some really angry break up songs there.

Really? I don't picture Taylor Swift as the angry type, as she swans from one millionaire boyfriend to the next.

There are some reasonably angry ones, especially in her first couple of albums.
