Preferably “unhinged” but hinged will do fine if that’s how you prefer to roll
From the few artists I know in this thread and any self-descriptive titles, this is going to be rather out there but…
Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace are what a friend and I agreed is the perfect breakup music. I think it came up because it made me feel better during a breakup but I didn’t want to continue listening to it to avoid getting sick of it and it losing the effect next time. Or something, idk I was a teenager :p
BB: I will not bow • Crawl • Blow me away
3DG: Break • Scared • RiotDidn’t know them at the time but Amity Affliction probably fits here as well. Soak me in bleach or Pittsburgh, for example
You Outta Know by Alanis Morissette
This is not a breakup song, but about many things i think. However the allusions to loneliness (or maybe solitude/isolation rather than loneliness) have me slot it partially in the breakup category… “Reckoner” by Radiohead.
Too Bad by Rival Sons
Joey Dosik, Vulfpeck - Running Away https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvpLjcXU3hY&t=222
Smile by Lily Allen (the music video is unhinged)
Self Destruct by Between Friends (totally hinged)
Baby Bitch by Ween
My laptop ca. 2004

Nice
Birthday Boy also is great (and referenced in Baby Bitch)
Dry your eyes - The Streets
If you’re the one who wanted to break up: Want You Gone. The song Glados sings from Portal 2.
If not: 50 Ways to Say Goodbye by Train
Ok just thought of another one that will be good if you like country that is pretty twisted.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJzp4ljVDi0 David Allen Coe - stains on the pillow where you once laid your head
Unbreak my heart - Toni braxton
Its not right but its okay – Whitney Houston
Before he cheats - Carrie Underwood
Before He Cheats but the mashup version with Warriors.
Jimmy Buffet - Margaritaville
Not enough songs out there for the people who know they were the problem.

Type o negative - anesthesia
Def Leopard - Love Bites
Theory of a Deadman - The Bitch Came Back
Train - 50 Ways to Say Goodbye
It’s hard for me to pick just one so I figured I may as well toss in a few to fit a couple moods.
