The time slot for Seek & Destroy fits best into our programming schedule, and that's how the decision was made. Of course we'd rather you listen to our station, but if you must listen to another, you can always go back and listen to the show on demand at any time within 14 days on our streaming archive!

But I'm baffled as to why in the hell you slotted it DIRECTLY against the only other metal block I can dial into my tuner: 99.9's Metal Shop, a fantastic show for all things hvy. Is this some sort of line in the sand drawn against a corporate station? Could ambient-techno-afrobeat -happy hour not make a shift to accommodate NW metal listeners?

KCMU featured a metal show, Brain Pain, hosted by West Seattle's own Jeff Gilbert. The challenge remains hearing this sort of stuff periodically mixed in during regular programming hours. What a treat it would be to hear some SunnO))) on KEXP during daylight hours. Everything old is new again. KCMU featured a metal show, Brain Pain, hosted by West Seattle’s own Jeff Gilbert.

From Killers through Powerslave Iron Maiden had one of the best runs of any metal band, easily classifying them as my favorite of the genre.
