Loathe: A Stranger to You

Loathe headlines this all-ages Orlando concert, with Fleshwater and Prostitute in support. The bill offers a mix of heavy, genre-blurring rock: Fleshwater, formed in Boston by members of Vein.fm, have drawn critical comparisons to soft grunge, nu-gaze and post-hardcore. Their debut album, We're Not Here to Be Loved, was met with positive reception, and a remix EP plus a string of singles followed.

The venue is general admission standing, so the whole floor is open for an up-close view of the bands. Fleshwater later joined Deftones and the Mars Volta on a North American tour, and their set alongside Loathe and Prostitute highlights the range of contemporary heavy music. It's a strong night for fans of boundary-pushing rock.
