Born Free Pub & Grill
After staging a sold-out rager in the room last Friday, promoter Locust Parade is back at Tampa biker bar Born Free for another heavy-hitter hardcore show.

This time it's with Gainesville crusty grindcore hybrid Fulcrum, which breaks the mold on “Resuscitation”, a brutal, tempo-shifting two-and-a-half-minute highlight from its new album Heaven Is Violence.

Botch, Coalesce and Converge-loving Tampa band Dead Mirrors opens the show along with new St. Pete thrash band Ramtha, and noise-rock outfit Vacancy featuring Locust Parade’s Eliot Mayo on vocals.

Tickets to see Fulcrum play Born Free Pub & Grill in Tampa on Friday, April 14 are $10 at the door.
