I've had that same emotional reaction. It seems like everything is going wrong. Then top it all off with music that is like finger nails down a chalk board and you can't get the music muted. It feels like the world is against you and even the random selection on the radio station is out to get you. My suggestion is some deep breathing exercises combined with therapeutic relaxation techniques and calmly walk yourself through the steps of blocking the artist, if you can. Of coarse, my original complaint was not being able to block an individual artist. Thumbs down on the radio random selection is as close as it gets. I have noticed if you thumbs down the song, then skip the song entirely, the random selection will eventually offer you different songs from the same genre. A thumbs up and the random selection will offer more music similar to the songs you like. Be patient and keep making the same thumbs up, thumbs down and skip selections and eventually, you'll listen to less and less music that grates your last nerves.
