Hi,
I go along with all those who suggest channelling your anger into resolving the issue or something productive. I can't seem to meditate when really mad.
I have read, and believe from experience, that punching things, breaking dishes, tearing up the pictures only serves to hold onto the anger and not resolve it (except by becoming exhausted).
When I am really angry, I use the 4 questions of Byron Katie - called "the work", and have gotten greater insight to deal with my anger. I found her audio book "Loving What Is" to be amazing. I think the audio version is much more powerful than the book, since it is mostly recordings of her doing the work.
Good luck,
Joan
