(1 Customer Review)
A collaboration between drummer Jon Theodore (of the Mars Volta) and Zack de la Rocha (of Rage Against the Machine), One Day As a Lion combines leading elements from both those bands for a sound that is confrontational, bracing, and charged with political fervor. The group's self-titled EP contains only five tracks, but Theodore's drumming plus de la Rocha's vocals and keys supersede the sonic assault of most full-length albums.
Fans of Rage Against the Machine will recognize de la Rocha's fiercely intense style, which owes debts to both hardcore punk and hardcore rap. But it's his developed political consciousness that gives the sound its true edge: this is music for the revolution-it points fingers, speaks truth, demands justice, and takes no prisoners. The sonic vibe may be slightly more experimental than RATM fans expect, but the power of ONE DAY AS A LION is undeniable.Rolling Stone (p.84) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "One Day are an exercise in simplicity: Theodore's prog-rock pummeling is compressed into massive funk beats, while de la Rocha's keyboards conjure brute bass lines and heavy-metal guitar chords." Kerrang (Magazine) (p.50) - "Featuring the surprisingly funky beats of former Mars Volta drummer Jon Theodore, ONE DAY AS A LION is five songs and 20 minutes of dirty, groove-laden rock and hip-hop that finds de la Rocha in typically fiery form..."

Critics have a hard time deciding what to call Saul Williams' music -- poetic hardcore, "punk-hop." It certainly isn't straightforward hip-hop by any means. On his self-titled album, Williams moves toward a slightly more accessible format (compared to his previous, more poetry driven work) with twisted guitar lines, heavy bass thumps, and a closer stab at singing from time to time. The album opens with poetry laid over a fairly sparse piano riff, then moves into a swooping, thumping bit of electronica where Williams nearly takes on a Prodigy-type sound with his vocal swagger. Where the opening track laid poetry over a sparse track, Williams' stinging telegram to hip-hop is poetry laid over a dense, dense sound ŕ la Public Enemy's Bomb Squad. Zack de la Rocha shows up to lend a hand on a slightly more stripped down, and yet more straightforward, piece of hip-hop perhaps, an indictment of the Iraq war and its subsequent issues -- a modern, though less melodic, What's Going On. "List of Demands," an outstandingly frenetic piece (somewhat ironically appropriated by Nike), manages to build tension gradually, then hits that elusive perfect single beat at the opening to each break. "African Student Movement" uses a backbeat to produce ...

One Day As A Lion songs
$12.19 Sigur Ros's fifth studio full-length, MED SUD I EYRUM VID SPILUM ENDALAUST, begins with such a tour de force of orchestral pop in the first half, listeners will recall Brian Wilson's self-describing "teenage symphonies to God." Pilfering from both the Arcade Fire--see the rousing second track "Inni Mer Syngur Vitleysingur"--and Animal Collective--see the lead-off single "Gobbledigook"--in equal measure, the Icelandic quartet create a masterwork that weds their soaring bombast to near-conventional pop structures and adds an experimental joy to their normally somber obsessiveness. The latter half of MED SUD is more in line with their previous effort, TAKK..., with more lived-in textures and slower paces, but after the poppy first half, the change is welcome. The album was recorded in a house in Reykjavik by Flood, who ...

One Day As A Lion songs
$16.45 Joel Limpic is an artist/musician who was born in California, grew up in Brazil, and ended up landing in Oklahoma City a few years ago. He’s released a few independent projects over the last few years, each providing a unique snapshot of a season in his life and those around him.The most recent project released is called “Pilgrimage”. Recorded by Don Chaffer (Waterdeep, Khrusty Brothers) in Kansas City and then mixed and mastered by veteran Chuck Zwicky (Prince, Delirious?), each song artfully explores our journey through this turbulent life with those around us. It leads you through an array of themes like abandonment, doubt, hope, identity, and faith. It features the musical participation of a large group of friends including Brad Kilman and Charlie Hall.To follow is a story describing some of the thoughts surrounding “Pilgrimage”:“HOW TO FOLD AN ORIGAMI CRANE”We’re all born into pilgrimage, from the day our lungs first fill with air till our last gasping breath. We begin wide-eyed as we take in as much beauty as our little eyes can handle. Everything surrounding is a miracle, from the single blade of grass reaching upward to the luminous moon faithfully reminding us of her brother. They each offer us a window, a glimpse, a small reminder of the home we lost and are desperately looking for.Just as soon as we’re overcome with beauty, we’re also overwhelmed with a sense that this beautiful co-exists with a much darker existence. A poisoned water well. A body that turns on itself. Creation striking creation. This pervading darkness perverts and distorts these visions of home, and even cause us to wonder if there is a home at all. Yet we hear murmurs of this new kingdom coming, not just far away but one that touches earth, that meets us on our path. Though real, the sirens blaring around us remind us all the more that we are ...
