RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE Frontman To Release ONE DAY AS A LION EP - July 1, 2008
ONE DAY AS A LION, the project featuring Zack De La Rocha (vocalist for RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE) and Jon Theodore (former drummer of THE MARS VOLTA) has inked a deal with Anti Records. The group's eponymous debut EP is scheduled for release on July 22.

ONE DAY AS A LION's sound is described in a press release as "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.

According to the band, ONE DAY AS A LION's name was "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."

"One Day As A Lion" was recorded by Robert Carranza at Ocean Way Recording and was mixed by Mario C at MCJ Studio.

The track listing for the CD is as follows:

01. Wild International
02. Ocean View
03. Last Letter
04. If You Fear Dying
05. One Day As A Lion

Surprised they didn't call this "We Hate America but We Love Capitalism" I guess that may have been to long of a title for the simplistically minded Rage fans.

It'll suck just like RATM, and no I'm not a Bush lover, or even political for that matter. Figure I'd lay that out on the table.

kling_klang_bed - you might as well say The Mars Volta sucks as well, while you're doing all that sucking.

not that i dont believe you, but which fascists use that motto?

Fascists promote a type of national unity that is usually based on (but not limited to) ethnic, cultural, national, racial, and/or religious attributes. Various scholars attribute different characteristics to fascism, but the following elements are usually seen as among its key parts: nationalism, militarism, totalitarianism, statism, dictatorship, populism, and collectivism; in addition, Fascism opposes classic political and economic liberalism, conservatism, and communism....not sure how you are saying that the motto is directly related to fascism. it has a hint of those views, but let's face it...zach come from a band named "rage against the machine"...are you that blind to see what he has been shouting his whole career? he is not preaching genocide like hitler, merely..anarchy and revolution. hahaha..rage rocks whether you want to admit it or not. and sure you can say that they are using sony to get their message out, so they have become part of the evil empire, but look in your wallet...you are using their (evil empire's) currency to get that internet access you hide behind. you are as much a slave to the machine as they, yet they are using the machine to get their message out, what are you doing?
