"'''Seek & Destroy'''" is a song by the American [[Heavy metal music|heavy metal]] band [[Metallica]] and the ninth track from their debut studio album, ''[[Kill 'Em All]]'' (1983). It was also featured on the demo ''[[List of Metallica demos#No Life 'Til Leather|No Life 'Til Leather]]''.<ref>{{cite encyclopedia|title=Metallica – No Life 'til Leather|url=http://metal-archives.com/release.php?id=4224|encyclopedia=Encyclopaedia Metallum}}</ref> It was the first song the band recorded in a studio. "Seek & Destroy" has been frequently performed at the group's concerts since its live debut in 1982 and had been Metallica's closing song from the [[Madly in Anger with the World Tour]] to the Metallica By Request Tour. It is the third-most performed song in the band's history, having been played 1,610 times as of October 2024, behind only "[[Creeping Death]]" (1,637) and "[[Master of Puppets (song)|Master of Puppets]]" (1,757).<ref>{{cite web|title=Song Statistics|url=https://www.metallica.com/tour/statistics|publisher=Metallica|access-date=November 12, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last=Ratliff|first=Ben|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/31/arts/music/31ratl.html|title=Some Kind of Refined Monster|newspaper=[[The New York Times]]|date=August 31, 2008|access-date=May 27, 2010}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last=Pastorek|first=Whitney|url=http://popwatch.ew.com/2008/06/14/bonnaroo-08-fri/|title=Bonnaroo 08: My Morning Friday|magazine=[[Entertainment Weekly]]|date=June 14, 2008|access-date=May 27, 2010}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last=McKenna|first=Dave|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/01/16/AR2009011604028.html|title=Metallica, Still Putting the Pedal to the Metal|newspaper=[[The Washington Post]]|date=January 17, 2009|access-date=May 27, 2010}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Metallica Tour Statistics {{!}} setlist.fm |url=https://www.setlist.fm/stats/metallica-3bd680c8.html |access-date=2024-10-18 |website=www.setlist.fm}}</ref>
The '''Vilcek Foundation''' raises awareness of [[Immigrants to the United States|immigrant]] contributions to the [[United States]], and fosters appreciation of the arts and sciences.<ref>{{cite book|last=Herman|first=Richard|title=Immigrant, Inc.|year=2009|publisher=Wiley, John & Sons|isbn=978-0-470-45571-5|pages=157–158}}</ref> The foundation's flagship programs include the Vilcek Foundation Prizes, which recognize and support immigrant contributions to American [[arts]], [[Healthcare science|biomedical science]], and society. The foundation is also the designated steward of the art collection assembled by founders Jan and Marica Vilcek, comprising holdings in American modernism, Native American pottery, pre Columbian objects, and contemporary art.<ref>{{cite web|title=About the Foundation|url=http://www.vilcek.org/about/the-foundation.html|work=The Vilcek Foundation}}</ref>
 
During the 2004 documentary film about Metallica, ''[[Metallica: Some Kind of Monster]]'', the song is used when footage of the band down the years is shown highlighting the progression in the group's appearance and sound over time. In [[AOL Radio]]'s list of the 10 Best Metallica Songs, "Seek & Destroy" was ranked at number 4,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.aolradioblog.com/2009/06/18/10-best-metallica-songs/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090623060519/http://www.aolradioblog.com/2009/06/18/10-best-metallica-songs|url-status=usurped|archive-date=June 23, 2009|title=10 Best Metallica Songs|author=Raymond, Serena|work=[[AOL Radio]]|date=June 2009|access-date=May 27, 2010}}</ref> and [[Allmusic]]'s Steve Huey chose the song as an AMG Track Pick from ''Kill 'Em All''.<ref>{{cite web|url={{AllMusic|class=album|id=r12988|pure_url=yes}}|title=Metallica – Kill 'Em All|author=Huey, Steve|work=[[AllMusic]]|access-date=May 27, 2010}}</ref>
The Foundation was established in 2000 by [[Ján Vilček|Jan]] and Marica Vilcek, [[Immigrants to the United States|immigrants]] from the former [[Czechoslovakia]].<ref>{{cite news|last=Perez-Pena|first=Richard|title=Research Scientist Gives $105 Million to N.Y.U|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2005/08/12/nyregion/12gift.html|access-date=12 August 2005|newspaper=The New York Times|date=12 August 2005}}</ref> The mission of the Foundation was inspired by the couple's respective careers in [[Healthcare science|biomedical science]] and [[art history]], as well as their personal experiences and appreciation for the opportunities offered them as newcomers to the [[United States]].<ref>{{cite news|last=Preston|first=Caroline|title=Couple's Philanthropy Honors the Achievements of Immigrants|url=http://philanthropy.com/article/Couples-Philanthropy-Honors/58540/|access-date=12 February 2006|newspaper=Chronicle of Philanthropy|date=12 February 2006|pages=20–23}}</ref>
 
Following the terrorist attacks on [[September 11, 2001]], the song was placed on the [[List of songs deemed inappropriate by Clear Channel following the September 11, 2001 attacks|list of post-9/11 inappropriate titles]] distributed by [[Clear Channel Communications|Clear Channel]].

==Writing and inspiration==
===Vilcek Prizes===
The song is about feeling the urge to kill, but not literally doing it. During the Kill 'Em All for One Tour, Hetfield would jokingly say that it was about hunting. It is said to be heavily influenced by the [[Diamond Head (English band)|Diamond Head]] song "Dead Reckoning". The first three mini-solos are derived from the song "Princess of the Night" by [[Saxon (band)|Saxon]]. Metallica added the final solo. Since the song's debut on ''Kill 'Em All'', Hammett has apologized for the unusual pitch of the string bend which occurs at 3:47 to 3:48, during the solo. It is, in fact, a mistake or "bum note".<ref>{{citation
The Vilcek Prizes are awarded to [[Foreign born|foreign-born]] individuals [[permanent resident|residing permanently]] in the [[United States]], with a legacy of outstanding achievement in the [[The arts|arts]] and sciences. The Foundation awards two Vilcek Prizes annually, one in [[Healthcare science|biomedical science]] and the other in the [[The arts|arts]] and [[humanities]]; the latter in a field designated annually by the Foundation, such as [[fine art]]s, [[architecture]], [[music]], [[filmmaking]], [[culinary art]], [[literature]], [[dance]], contemporary music, [[design]], and [[fashion]]. Each prize consists of a $100,000 cash award and a commemorative sculpture designed by Austrian-born [[Stefan Sagmeister]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Vilcek Prize Trophy|url=http://designarchives.aiga.org/#/entries/vilcek%20prize/_/detail/relevance/asc/0/7/8969/vilcek-prize-trophy/1|work=AIGA Design Archives|author=Sagmeister, Inc.}}</ref>

==Live performance==
===Vilcek Prizes for Creative Promise===
The song has become a fan favorite and has been played at virtually every Metallica concert since the band's inception. It is usually played as a closing number for its live performances since the Madly in Anger with the World tour, with Hetfield often asking the audience to sing along with him; he shouts "Searching," and they shout "Seek and destroy!" During the [[Wherever We May Roam Tour]], "Seek & Destroy" was played with [[Jason Newsted]] singing vocals; however, at the end of the song, the band would commence in a jam for nearly seven minutes until Hetfield took the microphone and continually had the audience sing the lines "Seek and destroy!".<ref>
The Vilcek Prizes for Creative Promise are awarded to [[Foreign born|foreign-born]] individuals who have demonstrated outstanding achievement during the early stages of their careers. Like the Vilcek Prize, the Vilcek Prizes for Creative Promise are awarded each year in the field of [[Healthcare science|biomedical science]] and a selected [[The arts|art]] field. Creative Promise applicants are required to submit [[essay]]s, personal statements, and examples of their work. To be eligible for the prize, applicants must have been born abroad, reside permanently in the [[United States]], and be within the specified age limit. As of 2013, three prizes each will be awarded in biomedical science<ref>{{cite journal|title=Vilcek Foundation scholarships for foreign-born medical scientists|journal=Scope|date=July 2012|volume=16|issue=28|url=http://scope.medicine.iu.edu/archives/2012/Vol-16-No-28.htm#Opportunities-1|author=IU School of Medicine|location=Indianapolis, IN}}</ref> and a designated art field.<ref>{{cite web|title=Con Edison Immigrant Artist Project Newsletter|url=http://www.nyfa.org/level3.asp?id=659&fid=1&sid=145&print=true|publisher=New York Foundation for the Arts|access-date=7 August 2012}}</ref> Each recipient is awarded a $50,000 cash prize and a commemorative plaque.

During the [[Shit Hits the Sheds Tour]] in 1994, the song would be introduced as a new song that Newsted wrote and would include an extended jam, that would include one of the main riffs of "[[The Outlaw Torn]]". From 2004 to 2015, it became a regular closing song at the end of the band's set. From 1983 to 1994, the song was played in E [[standard tuning]]. From 1995 to 2000 and for two shows in 2002 and 2013, respectively, it was played in E flat tuning. It was played in D standard tuning from 2000 to 2015. Starting again in 2015, it was played in E flat tuning. When played live, Hetfield (in the past also Newsted) often changes the beginning lyrics "in the city tonight" by replacing "the city" with the name of the town in which they are performing.<ref>See for example: {{citation

Since 2004, bassist [[Robert Trujillo]] has done a spinning technique with his bass guitar after the guitar solo of the song before the last verse.

A performance of the song with Burton on bass in 1985, is available on the DVD ''[[Cliff 'Em All]]''.<ref>
Since 2007, the Vilcek Foundation has been a sponsor of the New American Perspectives (formerly the "New American Filmmakers") program at the [[Hawaii International Film Festival]] (HIFF). Curated and presented in collaboration with HIFF, the program seeks out the most talented foreign-born filmmakers currently contributing to American cinema. The result is a diverse program that draws upon cinematic genres and traditions from around the world.

In May 2022, the Vilcek Foundation opened an exhibition, ''[https://vilcek.org/news/nari-ward-home-of-the-brave Nari Ward: Home of the Brave]'', featuring sculptures and installations by Jamaican-born artist and Vilcek Prizewinner [[Nari Ward]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Nari Ward: Home of the Brave |url=https://vilcek.org/news/nari-ward-home-of-the-brave/ |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=Vilcek Foundation |language=en-US}}</ref> The exhibition is on view by appointment in the Vilcek Foundation headquarters through May, 2023.

In July 2022, the Vilcek Foundation supported the development and opening of the exhibition, ''Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery'' at the [[Museum of Indian Arts and Culture]] in Santa Fe, New Mexico.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Vilcek Foundation supports "Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery" |url=https://vilcek.org/news/vilcek-foundation-supports-grounded-in-clay-the-spirit-of-pueblo-pottery/ |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=Vilcek Foundation |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery |url=https://www.museumfoundation.org/exhibitions/grounded-in-clay/ |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=MNMF}}</ref> The exhibition features works of Pueblo Pottery from the Vilcek Foundation Collection and from the collection of the Indian Arts Research Center at the [[School for Advanced Research]]. The exhibition was curated by a group of more than 60 artists, historians, and stewards of Native American art, the Pueblo Pottery Collective, and is accompanied by a catalog from Merrell Publishers.
 
=== Past exhibitions ===
The Vilcek Foundation has hosted and supported the development of several exhibitions both on site at the Vilcek Foundation, and in partnership with museums and institutions around the globe.
 
==== Ralston Crawford: Air + Space + War (2021-2022) ====
The Vilcek Foundation presented its second major exhibition featuring works by American Modernist Ralston Crawford, following ''Ralston Crawford: Adventurer in the Arts''. Curated by Emily Schuchardt Navratil, this landmark exhibition collected an extensive group of drawings, paintings, and photographs that document the influence of Crawford’s experiences in the U.S. military on his life and work.<ref>{{Cite web |title="Ralston Crawford: Air + Space + War" exhibition opens at Brandywine |url=https://vilcek.org/news/ralston-crawford-air-space-war-exhibition-opens-at-brandywine/ |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=Vilcek Foundation |language=en-US}}</ref>
 
''Ralston Crawford: Air + Space + War'' centers on commissions Crawford undertook at the Curtiss-Wright Aircraft Plant in Buffalo, New York, and his assignment to document nuclear weapons tests conducted by the U.S. Joint Army/Navy Task Force at [[Bikini Atoll]] for [[Fortune (magazine)|Fortune Magazine]] in 1946.
 
''Ralston Crawford: Air + Space + War'' opened at the [[Brandywine River Museum of Art]] in June 2021, where it was on view through September 2021. The exhibition subsequently opened at the [[Dayton Art Institute]] in October 2021, where it was on view through January 2022.
 
==== Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs (2019) ====
''Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs'' was the first exhibition shown in the Vilcek Foundation’s headquarters at 21 East 70th Street, New York, New York.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs |url=https://vilcek.org/news/ralston-crawford-torn-signs/ |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=Vilcek Foundation |language=en-US}}</ref> The exhibition features works by American Modernist [[Ralston Crawford]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Vilcek Foundation Presents "Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs" |url=https://vilcek.org/news/vilcek-foundation-presents-ralston-crawford-torn-signs/ |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=Vilcek Foundation |language=en-US}}</ref> ''Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs'' opened in April 2019, and was on view through November, 2019. A digital exhibition featuring selected works from the exhibition was shared on the Vilcek Foundation website from 2020 – 2021.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Spotlight on "Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs" |url=https://vilcek.org/events/spotlight-on-ralston-crawford-torn-signs/ |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=Vilcek Foundation |language=en-US}}</ref>
 
Curated by Emily Schuchardt Navratil, ''Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs'' explores the national and international influences on the multifaceted Canadian-born artist. Although he earned acclaim early in his career for his [[Precisionism|Precisionist]] paintings of an industrialized America, Crawford devoted the latter part of his career to abstract painting with a remarkable emotional dimension. ''Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs'' focuses on two series—“Torn Signs” and “Semana Santa”—that the artist developed over the last two decades of his life.
 
==== The Synchromists and Oscar Bluemner's Sonnet Series (2020-2022) ====
In early 2020, the Vilcek Foundation launched two concurrent exhibitions in the Vilcek Foundation's headquarters, ''The Synchromists'', and ''Oscar Bluemner's Sonnet Series''.<ref>{{Cite web |title=The Synchromists and Oscar Bluemner: The Sonnet Series |url=https://vilcek.org/news/the-synchromists-and-oscar-bluemner-the-sonnet-series/ |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=Vilcek Foundation |language=en-US}}</ref>
 
''The Synchromists'' includes works by [[Morgan Russell]] and [[Stanton Macdonald-Wright]], the founders of [[Synchromism]].
 
''Oscar Bluemner’s Sonnet Series'' comprises a series of sketches for paintings by [[Oscar Bluemner]] based on 12 sonnets by poet Eirene Mungo-Park.
 
The exhibitions were displayed at the Vilcek Foundation in the spring of 2020; as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the foundation pivoted to launch these exhibitions online on the foundation’s website. Both exhibitions are now part of the Vilcek Foundation's traveling exhibition initiative.
 
In Summer of 2022 ''The Synchromists'' opened at the [[Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum]] in Madrid.<ref>{{Cite web |title=The Synchromists |url=https://www.museothyssen.org/en/exhibitions/synchromists |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza |language=en}}</ref>
 
==== Marsden Hartley: Adventurer in the Arts (2021) ====
''Marsden Hartley: Adventurer in the Arts'' debuted at the [[Bates College Museum of Art]] in Lewiston, Maine in September, 2021. Curated by Emily Schuchardt Navratil, ''Marsden Hartley: Adventurer in the Arts'' brings together over 35 paintings and drawings spanning four decades of artwork by American Modernist [[Marsden Hartley]].
 
To organize this unique exhibition, the Vilcek Foundation partnered with the Bates College Museum of Art, home to the Marsden Hartley Memorial Collection.
 
The exhibition is accompanied by a full-color catalog from Merrell Publishers.

=== ''Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery'' ===
''Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery'' accompanies the exhibition of the same name curated by the Pueblo Pottery Collective, and coordinated by the Vilcek Foundation and the [[School for Advanced Research]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery |url=https://vilcek.org/news/grounded-in-clay-the-spirit-of-pueblo-pottery/ |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=Vilcek Foundation |language=en-US}}</ref>
 
An impressive survey of more than 100 pieces of historic Pueblo pottery, ''Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery'' is remarkable for the fact that the works have been selected by Pueblo community members – the Pueblo Pottery Collective.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Grounded In Clay {{!}} School for Advanced Research |url=https://sarweb.org/iarc/grounded-in-clay/,%20https://sarweb.org/iarc/grounded-in-clay/ |access-date=2022-10-18 |language=en-US}}</ref>
 
The Pueblo Pottery Collective is made up of more than 60 participants from 21 Pueblo communities in the Southwest – among them potters and other artists, as well as writers, curators and community leaders – along with non-Pueblo stewards of Native American art. These community curators were invited to choose works from the collections of the Indian Arts Research Center at the [[School for Advanced Research]] in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and the Vilcek Collection in New York for the exhibition, and to write short essays or contributions on their selections for the catalog. The resulting work centers the voices and lived experiences of Native American people, artists, and community historians.
 
In addition to the contributions of the members of the Pueblo Pottery Collective, the catalog features essays by Dr. Joseph Aguilar, Rick Kinsel, [[Nora Naranjo Morse]], and Elysia Poon.
 
=== ''Ralston Crawford: Air + Space + War'' ===
American art underwent a transformation in the period 1940–55, and nowhere is that change better exemplified than in the work of [[Ralston Crawford]] (1906–1978).
 
This exciting book presents a remarkable selection of Crawford’s paintings, drawings, photographs and prints from this pivotal era in the artist’s career. The catalogue, published by Merrell, accompanies the titular exhibition curated by Emily Schuchardt Navratil and organized by the Vilcek Foundation in collaboration with the [[Brandywine River Museum of Art]] and the [[Dayton Art Institute]].<ref>{{Cite web |title="Ralston Crawford: Air + Space + War" exhibition opens at Brandywine |url=https://vilcek.org/news/ralston-crawford-air-space-war-exhibition-opens-at-brandywine/ |access-date=2022-10-18 |website=Vilcek Foundation |language=en-US}}</ref>
 
=== ''Marsden Hartley: Adventurer in the Arts'' ===
[[Marsden Hartley]] (1877–1943) was proud to call himself an American artist, but he dreamed of travel to Europe, believing that he would learn more there than in his home state of Maine or even in New York. His rise to prominence as a specifically American modernist was based largely on the visual influences that he encountered in 1912–15 in the vibrant cities of Paris, Berlin, and Munich, which he then synthesized through a New England perspective. Solitary by nature, Hartley never lost his wanderlust, and throughout his life found inspiration in many other landscapes and cultures, including in southern France, Italy, Bermuda, New Mexico, Mexico, and Canada.
 
''Marsden Hartley: Adventurer in the Arts'' offers a fresh appraisal of this pioneering modernist, whose work continues to be celebrated for its spirituality and experimentation. Rick Kinsel’s introduction provides an overview of the ways Hartley’s peripatetic life shaped his artistic vision.

===''Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs''===
 
''Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs'' explores the national and international influences on the multifaceted Canadian-born artist. Although he earned acclaim early in his career for his Precisionist paintings of an industrialized America, Crawford devoted the latter part of his career to abstract painting with a remarkable emotional dimension. Torn Signs focuses on two series—“Torn Signs” and “Semana Santa”—that the artist developed over the last two decades of his life. The catalogue includes essays from Rick Kinsel on the influence of Crawford’s travels to Europe, especially to [[Andalusia]]; William C. Agee on the artist’s life and reaction to historical events of the 20th century; John Crawford on the relationship between the two series and the role of photography in their development; and Emily Schuchardt Navratil on the genesis and context of individual works in each series. "Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs" was released by Merrell Publishers in April 2019.<ref>{{cite web |title=Ralston Crawford: Torn Signs |url=http://www.merrellpublishers.com/9781858946733 |website=Merrell Publishers |access-date=7 June 2019}}</ref>
