Eight Gigs: Cafe Colonial benefit show

Fri., Aug. 28, 8 p.m., Cafe Colonial/The Colony, $10

Interested in pitching in for a cause but unwilling to do it unless it involves dudes screaming at you in higher fidelity? Wretched Earth Productions is putting on a double-venue, 10-band bill of metal—mostly of the bestial, slamming death variety—all to raise funds for better gear at Cafe Colonial and The Colony. The lineup includes Defecrator (pictured), Wurm Flesh, Embodied Torment, Solitary Priapism, Ungulate and more. If you've ever wanted to help out a local venue or just want a sample of Sacto's heaviest, now's a good time. Bring the kids for this all-ages intensity. 3512 Stockton Boulevard, www.facebook.com/
