Album News: One Day As A Lion - EP and Album

Nothing too significant to note here from my earlier post here, but Andy from InSound has emailed me to inform me that the EP is now available for preorder, to be released in two weeks. They've also made the One Day As A Lion full album LP available for pre-order, and anyone who does so, will be able to download mp3s of all the album's tracks on 22nd of this month, more than three months before the album's physical release date (October 7th)! Not too bad of an offer if I do say so myself.

Although don't expect any of these songs to be played by Rage Against The Machine mainman Zach De La Rocha at Oxegen this Sunday!

Album News: Zach De La Rocha - One Day As A Lion EP

Apart from headlining this year's Oxegen festival with his old band, Rage Against the Machine, Zach De la Rocha has teamed up with drummer Jon Theodore to form side-project One Day As A Lion. They release their debut EP, a self-titled cut, on July 22nd.

On their website, they declare that ODAAL is: "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."

Tracklist:
1. Wild International
2. Ocean View
3. Last Letter
4. If You Fear Dying
5. One Day As A Lion
