Anti- has announced the signing of One Day as a Lion, the new project from Zack de la Rocha of Rage Against the Machine and drummer Jon Theodore, formerly of Mars Volta.
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
The EP was recorded by Robert Carranza at Ocean Way Recording. It is due out July 22, 2008. To date, no music is available but it is expected to appear shortly.
Since the breakup of Rage in 2000, Zack has remained relatively quiet, officially releasing a collaboration with DJ Shadow and a handful of other material but keeping largely inactive while his former bandmates formed Audioslave.
