“One Day As A Lion is both a warning delivered and a promise kept.”

“A defiant affirmation of the possibilities that exist in the space between kick and snare. It’s a sonic reflection of the visceral tension between a picturesque fabricated cultural landscape, and the brutal socioeconomic realities it attempts to mask. One Day As A Lion is a recorded interaction between Zack de la Rocha and Jon Theodore from Los Angeles, California.”

“The name taken from the infamous 1970 black and white, captured by legendary Chicano photographer George Rodriguez featuring a center framed tag on a white wall in an unspecified section of Boyle Heights. It reads: ‘It’s better to live one day as a lion, than a thousand years as a lamb.’ This record is a stripped down attempt to realize this sentiment in sound.”

They got a song up on their myspace page (Wild international), it's pretty tight :
MySpace.com - One Day As A Lion - LOS ANGELES, California - Other - www.myspace.com/onedayasalion


It basically sounds just like RATM which is awesome but also kinda makes you wonder why the need for a separate band, complete creative control? Zach's had enough of Morello's solos? Theodore does a decent job of it but doesn't really shine like he did in Volta...

Anyways, super stoked for an album or an EP.
