If you want bitter, brooding stuff, it's hard to do much better than E. Costello or Bob Mould (solo or with Husker Du or Sugar)
EC:
I Want You
Alison
BM/Sugar:
Poison Years
Explode and Make Up
Also - Joan Jett (I Hate Myself for Loving You), Anthrax (Dallabnikufesin - wait for the ending on this one), Tina Turner (What's Love Got To Do With It?), Simon and Garfunkel (I Am A Rock),and Living Colour (Love Rears Up Its Ugly Head)
For overall anti-romantic, crude laddishness, tho', go with AC/DC. 'Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap' just feels oddly satisfying when your thinking, 'to hell with all that lovey-dovey crap.' And of course it's all downhill from there with these guys.
