A Saturday night at the 4th Street Station in downtown St. Paul. Saw part of the opening set by 'Royal Xeno' where the singer gave forth a high spirited energetic effort to start out the evening. P.C.P. came from Wisconsin for this show. This may be their last Twin Cities show as they plan on playing their final show at the House of Rock in Eau Claire, Wisc. on Dec. 12th. They provided an industrial rock set with a slower pace then some of the hard edged industrial bands. Two good examples are their songs "Fight and Win" and "Confessions". Nick brought out a hooded look for this 'Filthy Divine' show. Viva ribbed Nel Harrison, who was in the crowd, with a stalker comment which is a reference to the upcoming 'Tazer Girl' local cable project. 'Filthy Divine' has been working in new songs at their shows lately which includes "Comfortable" and this evening "High, Low". More excellent material as they work towards putting out a full length CD - - they do have a live CD available and should have t-shirts at their upcoming shows. 'Cold Colours' closed out the night with their metal show - - not exactly gothic or dark metal. On their t-shirts is the slogan "Pure North American Wuss Metal". Come out to one of their shows to get a taste of their music and rock out with the band. They have a CD release show at the Urban on Dec. 6th - - a three song EP called "depressing the masses".
