Lions are known for their ferocious roar. So it only makes sense that Rage Against the Machine frontman Zach de la Rocha and former Mars Volta drummer Jon Theodore are calling their new band One Day As A Lion.
Really, the band name was inspired by a George Rodriguez shapshot taken back in 1970 of a tag on a white wall in the Los Angeles area of Boyle Heights that reads: 'It's better to live one day as a lion, than a thousand years as a lamb.' "This record is a strippe... MORE

The track is streaming on ODAAL MySpace page. and is the first leak of the band's debut self-titled EP, out July 22nd. I like the first track from One Day As A Lion, but I'm also annoyed by it. "World International" doesn't sound like anything I haven't heard before. It's Zach De La Rocha's usual hardcore ra... MORE
