The collaborative, experimental project One Day As A Lion, spearheaded by vocalist Zack de la Rocha (Rage Against The Machine) and drummer Jon Theodore (The Mars Volta), have announced their first US shows. The duo will be joined by Joey Karam (The Locust) on keyboard for shows in Pomona, CA on July 17 and in Los Angeles, CA on July 18 at undisclosed locations. Tickets go on sale Wednesday at 12:00PM PT and will be available via Will Call only. All ticket holders will be emailed the venue information at 8:00AM PT day of the show.

OUT TODAY: One Day As A Lion

The self-titled debut EP from One Day As A Lion, the on-going creative collaboration between Zack de la Rocha and Jon Theodore, hits stores today.

Ann Powers at the Los Angeles Times writes: “Theodore’s drumming is skittish and sharp, forming hostile tangles with De la Rocha’s lyrics, causing an itchy feeling instead of fist-pumping relief. And with no guitar — though plenty of keyboard that sounds like extremely distorted guitar — and no bass, this music hits higher in the body than most rock. The chaotic here-and-now of vintage Public Enemy is the obvious reference, along with minimalist punk.”

See for yourself. The songs are available on iTunes and Amazon.
