Eight Gigs: Pseudogod

Thu., Oct. 8, 8 p.m., Press Club, $15

The Cold War may be long over, but the lads in Russia’s blackened death metal outfit Pseudogod will most certainly bring an ill wind with them, and an odd chill will creep down the spines of those in attendance. Standout songs like “Awakening Of Archdaemon” and “Vehement Decimation” will cause intense, painful rashes in the nether-regions, and perhaps even internal bleeding, upon first listen. Also joining Satan’s party are Crurifragium, Ritual Genocide and Defecrator. It’s not often we get bands this extreme in Sacramento, so expect a capacity turnout for this one. Come enjoy the blasphemy. 2030 P Street, www.facebook.com/pseudogod.official.
