KEXP
Hannah Levin writes, “From the first day I was brought on board at KEXP just over two years ago, I’ve been a vocal (read: periodically obnoxious) advocate for an increase in our programming of hard rock and metal. KEXP has a de facto emphasis on independent artists, while hard rock and metal are historically perceived as the major label fodder of repetitive, mainstream radio programming. Because of those dovetailing factors, it can initially be difficult to see why it’s so important that we begin pulling harder stuff into the mix.” Levin and co-host Tanner Ellison will scour the globe for unearthed gemes in all of metal’s subgenres, from thrash and grindcore to death and black metal as well as re-examining the classics. Seek and Destroy will launch, fittingly, on Halloween from midnight until 2:00 am and continue every Saturday thereafter.

Absolutely, immensely, THRILLED to hear the new show. There is so much incredible independent, progressive, heavy music out there that should be heard. Hope to see SEEK AND DESTROY pushing the boundaries of what is considered “metal”.
Good luck to you!
