Hollow Leg, which plays Deviant Libation in Tampa, Florida on Jan. 6, 2024.

Deviant Libation’s adoption of hardcore and heavy metal shows rolls into the new year and kicks off 2024 on Saturday with a gig headlined by central Florida sludge metal outfit Hollow Leg, which is actually rooted in a love for American blues and English metal. The results will please fans of Iron Maiden, and a cadre of mighty fine Florida metal outfits (including Gainesville’s Thunderclap for whom Deviant Libation’s Tim Ogden has brewed signature beer) opens the show.

Tickets to see Hollow Leg play Deviant Libation in Tampa on Saturday, Jan. 6 are $10 at the door.
The music at Deviant continues on Wednesday, with Academy Order.

If a heavy metal or hard rock band wanted to give new wave or synth-pop a shot, but decided to blend those sounds with its standard ones, you’d have A New Kind of Fear, the latest album from the Philadelphia-based outfit. While there are most likely going to be more dates added throughout the year, this Ybor Heights gig is currently the finale of a quick southeast tour that also rolls through North Carolina and Tennessee.
