The seventh installment of the SnoCore tour rolled through the frozen tundra of Detroit with a scaling down in venue size, but in the quality of the headliner, Army of Anyone was anything but scaled down.

The rock supergroup, consisting of Richard Patrick (ex-Filter lead singer), and brothers Robert and Dean DeLeo (ex-Stone Temple Pilots bassist and guitarist) lead a 75-minute set which showcased somewhat promising new material, but was highlighted by the covers from their former respective bands.

Looking much more healthy than the last time most of us saw him, Patrick came out as the band launched into the leadoff song from their self-titled debut, It Really Doesn’t Seem to Matter. Early on in the set, Patrick dedicated the new track “Generation” to the much-maligned President of the United States. The new material seems to be more in the vein of the pop leaning material from Stone Temple Pilots than the industrial melodic crunch of Filter. The music met with polite approval from the 500 or so fans in the audience.

Songs like “Ain’t Enough” saw the band looking at their 70s rock influenced, which most of the time looking like they were stealing from the Led Zeppelin catalog.

But where the fans seemed to relish in the show were the band’s covers of their earlier material. Of the Stone Temple Pilots material, the band launched into a slowed up version of “Vasoline,” a stellar cover of “Big Bang Baby” and a gritty version of “Sin.” Of the Filter material, spirited retreads of “Take A Picture” and “Welcome to the Fold” where no match for the crowd’s elation for the band’s first hit “Hey Man, Nice Shot,” which had everyone going.

The band ended the set by having to bail early for the club setup St. Andrew’s undergoes every Friday night, but left with playing the first single off the record, the aptly titled “Goodbye.”

In comparing rock supergroups, people in the audience would begin to compare them to ex-STP’s singer Scott Weiland’s Velvet Revolver (which usually covers the heavier of STP songs in concert) and the possibly-now defunct Audioslave. But Army of Anyone proved they may not have the following of those bands as of yet, but they are trying to carve out a niche for themselves.
