I keep meaning to go back to WREKage one night and do this....have the playlist on my computer, it's just a matter of finding a Friday night where I'm not busy! DJing rules.

Good, 'cause my local requests rarely get played on WREK or WRAS these days.

Local bands have kinda stopped sending stuff. Most everything I have is from bands that popped up over the past 2-3 years I found/bought myself. There are exceptions...LTNR and Wolves & Jackals come to mind, but yeah.

Not sure why free airtime blasted across a 5,000,000+ resident metro area at 40,000 watts on a weekly basis to eager listeners would be ignored, but I somehow figured that was the case.

This.
And it's not just local bands, either; most labels have sharply cut back on their promo distribution and/or have switched to often-annoying online file distro.

Right, but they still send stuff...just through a different format. It's not limited to metal, either. Most labels have switched to that bullshit. It sucks, but at least they still try to get their stuff heard.
