Editor's review
Zack de la Rocha's ferocious lyrics have a way of tattooing themselves on our brains--remember the radicalist scorn of "they say jump you say how high?" The former RATM firebrand hasn't cooled a bit on his project with Jon Theodore, dropping an avant-garde punk-rap that's all the more relevant now.
Biography
Anti- Records is pleased to announce the signing of One Day As A Lion. An on-going creative collaboration between two like-conscioused individuals, One Day As A Lion will release their eponymous debut EP worldwide on July 22nd.
The band writes:
"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."
