No other lineup this week delivers a punch as intense, diverse and fresh as this one featuring all young contenders in Florida\u2019s hard and heavy scenes. <\/p>\n

Gainesville leads the way with new hardcore brutes Orca and emotive post-hardcore rockers The Yaupon Holly. Jacksonville reps via the frenetic mathcore of My Sword! My Sword! Orlando anchors with the dynamic, high-wire hardcore of Weak, who just released jackhammering single \u201cStay\u201d ahead of an upcoming new album. <\/p>\n

8 p.m. Friday, March 13, Will\u2019s Pub, willspub.org<\/a>, $15.<\/p>\n
