"Anger Rising" is a song by American hard rock musician Jerry Cantrell. It served as the lead single from his 2002 second album, Degradation Trip. Cantrell's fourth single overall, the track made its radio debut in April 2002, was on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks chart for 18 weeks and reached #10.

"Anger Rising" begins with a choir-like, non-lexical vocal harmony over acoustic guitar. This leads into heavy guitars with a steady beat and an aggressive, snarling chorus. Described by MTV's Joe D'Angelo as "a dysfunctional family portrait with a violent hue that revisits themes found in the Alice in Chains hit "Rooster," the song deals with domestic abuse and evokes imagery of life in a decrepit trailer park.

Chris DeGarmo, formerly of Queensrÿche, makes a guest appearance playing slide guitar on "Anger Rising." DeGarmo had previously performed on tour with Cantrell in promotion of his 1998 album, Boggy Depot. He also recorded music with Mike Inez and Sean Kinney, bandmates of Cantrell, in Spys4Darwin.

A music video directed by Paul R. Brown was made to accompany the single. It found considerable circulation on MTV2 and Much Music and can be viewed on Degradation Trip Volumes 1 & 2.
