In August of this year, KEN Mode released their 7th LP upon the world, Loved. Pulling from metal, noise, jazz, industrial, and hardcore, this album is a powerhouse from the opening screeches of Doesn't Feel Pain Like He Should, until the waning and crushing moments of No Gentle Art.  In the words of frontman, Jesse Matthewson, Loved was born out of a "hopeless sense in the world" following the wave of far-right politics sweeping across the globe, and the dawn of the Trump administration here in America. Dan sat down with Jesse and spoke to him about Loved, their recent run of shows with Birds in Row, Muay Thai and MMA, and their favorite breweries and beers.
