Though I can get gigs playing other peoples' preferred material, it's getting very frustrating that every venue I approach with the music I most want to play turns us down. They phrase it in various ways but it comes down to them not wanting hardcore jazz, as far as I can tell.

Here's what ChatGPT offeres for alternative wording you might use - give these a try instead and watch the gigs come pouring in.....(start with the last one!!!)
Certainly! Here are some alternative words and phrases for "hardcore jazz":
Bebop
Avant-garde jazz
Free jazz
Fusion jazz
Progressive jazz
Modal jazz
Post-bop
Jazz rock
Experimental jazz
Cutting-edge jazz
Innovative jazz
Modern jazz
Acid jazz
Contemporary jazz
Aggressive jazz

I'm disappointed that it missed out "defiant jazz".
Unfortunately, the problem is more like:
Band: Do you want some jazz?
Venue: Sounds interesting.Band: Great! Here's a demo tape.
Venue: Er.... Actually... We meant a pianist/singer doing quiet background music during dinner. Or something with a tune the punters could dance to.
Perhaps the trick is to record a mild demo tape then wait to unleash the hard stuff at the gig. But, despite being jazz musicians, we'd like to get paid.
