Eight Gigs: Imbibed by the Quasar

Sun., April 26, 8:30 p.m., On the Y, $5

Booking veteran Tanaka Leal is putting on some high-quality metal shows around the Sacramento area. For the price of a coffee at Starbucks, you can catch some crazy death metal from Imbibed By The Quasar, which may just have the coolest band name ever. If you’re into frenetic, fast-paced death metal with some cool synthesizer workouts, these five lads will take you on a nauseating journey through time and space. If you’ve always wanted to know what it would feel like to be excreted and splattered into the stratosphere aurally, you best come out to this one. Also on the bill are Perfect Nightmare and Bloodgeon. 670 Fulton Ave, www.facebook.com/imbibedofficial.
