If You Fear Dying - One Day As A Lion

[MakDakProductions]

I read that they recruited a third person on keyboards.I forget his name.

[degas]

after he raped did he died?? :p

[McProZak]

Wow, people are still talking about that comment? I must've hit a nerve. 

[socalkevinz]

so what happened to odaal? are they done?

[Ajnorton666]

@socalkevinz They are currently touring...

[ortsac92]

Music is very revolutionary. With music, you reach the multitudes and spread a message of resistance, counter culture,, unity and many other feelings. To say music is not revolutionary is just asinine. Because obviously music only existed at the same time the corporations existed right? (Sarcasm for you who didn't catch on) Music is everything.

[McProZak]

@ortsac92 Lets pretend this is a discussion (you know, the rare kind of converstion where people listen to eachothers arguements): if music is so revolutionary, can you name to me ANY music that started off a revolutionary movement (that is not made-up)?

Anyway, I'm sure most of you will grow up some day, no hard feelings.

[ortsac92]

@McProZak Casas de carton by Los Guaraguos (I think thats how you spell it lol) In El Salvador songs like this which protested were banned off the airwaves and if you were caught listening to it, you would be executed under suspicion of being FMLN. Granted that it did't start the revolution but it sure did help further it you get me?

[chodykumbra]

@McProZak

Hes got a good point alot of the musicians that did that type of music in Latin America were seriously persecuted. But i think its also safe to say that the anti war movement during Vietnam was greatly influenced by folks like John Lennon. Music helps to create culture.

[trytojustify]

the keyboardline sound just like wild international^^

[MrLuy25]

@trytojustify yeh mate thats what i though hahaha

[Jookkor]

Fuck I love this tune

[102rancid]

Pretty much would sound like RATM if tom morello was playing

[reddemon242]

@102rancid no man, tom was amazing, but think about it man, you need all of them to make it sound anywhere near as good as what it used 2 be.

not some random keyboard guy and drummer

[102rancid]

@reddemon242 Well yeah you know if tom was playing it would be alot funkier instead of a progression that goes from the root to the 6th to the 5th i think. Totally agree that Tom is bad ass prolly one of my favorite guitarists he just pulls fat ass riffs out of thin air. It isn't a random keyboardist either its Zach playing and that is the drummer from mars volta never really listened to them though.

[crock703]

I was impressed w/ this band -- I can do without the 'singing' parts though (too much like nu metal or "emo"/metal hardcore -- whatever that contrived wallowing bs is called now.)

[GonzoEnder]

I'M THE

[dragonoflava101]

Zack needs to come back to RATM, I'm starting to listen to this band but RATM with all the band mates is just a musical orgy

[Bonzoandthemadhatter]

zack is in ratm... theyre touring europe this summer

[McProZak]

-is

OMG TYPO, NOW I CANT UNDERSTANDZ IT N E MORE!!

you got me there. More than entertainment, well yeah it's also an industry and a lot of pretentiousness. But by all means, keep your head in your ass if that feels good for you.

[geniusgza7]

im not talking about "the industry", im talking about music.

man you need to maybe chill. you get very frustrated easily.

[102rancid]

I love people trying to bash others but cant even formulate proper sentences that make sense. Thus backfiring and further humiliating yourself the antagonist.

[heezels]

@McProZak hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahaha. The only pretentiousness i can detect at the current moment is your comment.

[McProZak]

Good song, but remember kids: all music is entertainment and is you're not really a revolutionary.

[geniusgza7]

"is you're not really a revolutionary." that doesnt make sense, anyway music isn't just entertainment to me, its alot more than that.

[tzeqin]

you make sense too. you both should just kiss and make up

[tzeqin]

agreed.

[NostalgicProcrast]

@McProZak you're stupid...

[ferfy6]

@McProZak music is more than entertainment...and depending on what content the artist is speaking..it can be revolutionary..you are the one with your head in your ass if you dont realize that

[ebowass]

@McProZak is a gay fucking name!

[Huzar1683]

@McProZak haha kids dont think like that only lifeless adults do who have less sense than kids

[cdee12120]

Zach de la Rocha i loved so much of your music...your insight is incredible.. i understand fully how a very few control the masses..munipulate at anyone and everyone's expense..just don't let it consume you... in the end when push comes to shove...loves conquers all...it is the only thing we take with us...i hope you happiness...

[jojothemagichobo]

Very Rage Against The Machine'y..

BEAUTIFUL. Fucking BEAUTIFUL.

[sevenpromises]

una maza esta banda!

[2chE79]

Ya era hora de algo bueno como esto, la pila se escucha con huevos y que digo de las vocales...no tiene madre!!!

[Gerradusa]

Seems like I have to buy this EP, it rocks.

[rheaann420]

its totally worth it

[MilitentMind]

Did you notive Jon usually sets his kit up bonham style, with the 1 rack 2 floor tom etc, strictly plays single kick etc

[andrewisgowran]

he also plays double kick pedal on the recording GOLD w/ the fucking am on a few songs.

[begs100]

uh, check, check ,man i missed that! ya cant not not bahp your head to this!

[IfIfsandands]

Jon sounds like Bonham!!

[stefansnake]

most insiprational person to me Zach keep kicking ass but not like this. I wish so badly that rage would get back together.

[evanm1986]

this shit is siiick, I think these 2 have more power than rage (huge ratm btw)

[insurgent28]

The Guilty Parties were the shit that is agreed. However, this is some pretty good stuff to. At least Zach kept his flow style.

[Steveaux]

Damn it feels good to hear an old hero of mine still kicking ass.

[robbinsillinois]

amen man

[Sheeddyy]

damn , zack is (to me) the best MC ever. :)

[APELEN]

Love the rap, but are they gonna use that synth all the way?

[APELEN]

Tom Morello is better than Slash, but Slash is better than Tom Morello, both in their own ways

[mifutbol]

I'm Chicano soprano high off my pitch ammo

viva la raza

[tarantula28]

Natarsid! Natarsid! Mah hameh bah ham hastim!

[soulcheck4all]

I turned my keyboard on, picked a preset drum track, hit the record button, squatted over the keyboard and farted...again...again...and again...all the while babbling about anything that crossed my mind...Yes...I have talent, but I am between bands....permanently.

[RedefineYou]

Zach "babbling about anything that crossed his mind" is still one million times more poetic and interesting than anything you would ever have to say.

[soulcheck4all]

Well, you are as entitled to your opinion as I am to mine.

[chodykumbra]

Dude, someone with actual content is rapping. The only way youd be justified to type that is if you did it on every soldier boy, little john, fifty cent video etc. Someone is actually raping about the war on terror and globalization that is engulfing us all and you call it shit. comparered to 99 percent of whats rapped today this is far more relevant.

Id rather hear zach quote huey p newton then hear retarded MCs quote eachother about cars and bitches all day.

[W1ldSm1le]

Well said.

[Zeetheoneandonly]

Well fucking said mate. Some people don't have a fucking clue.

[tommyneumann]

you cant even compare zack de la rocha to mcs in the rap game.zack is one of the most passionate, soulful, intelligent voices in the history of music

[bapes8]

Musician = Tupac, Zack De La Rocha etc..

People that dont deserves to have neither = Soulja Boy, Fall Out Boy etc..

I like pure Hip Hop (and its subgenres) and Rock and Roll (and its subgenres)

[xridinontunesx]

fall out boy..? im the first to admit their lastest album isnt as good but putting them in the same league as soulja boy? listen to some of their lyrics especcially the old stuff..

[bapes8]

ok ill put them in the same boat as 50 cent and Black Eye Peas because they used to have good style

[mickdahiphophead]

you just dont listen to enough hip-hop man. every emcees got there own catch that makes there style, it just depends what you like. theres plenty of emcees with the same passion.

[RPGfiend]

@chodykumbra Rapped is just one letter away from raped.Think about it O_o

[chodykumbra]

@RPGfiend Yeah that is a really bad typo isn't it. How do i edit that??

[RPGfiend]

@chodykumbra lol I wouldn't worry about it.Your comment has 17 thumbs up ^_^ All you could do is delete the comment and retype it.But then you'd lose all those delicious green thumbs up.

[RPGfiend]

@RPGfiend P.S.-I was just being an ass : D

[lztouchthedream]

@chodykumbra I don't think raping should be condoned, even if it is to bring awareness to how wrong the war on terror is.

[MrBenKales]

@lztouchthedream Raping is wrong. Awareness.

[TheSlappy95]

@chodykumbra

not all rappers are on the radio or MTV

[CorneliusMcGee]

@chodykumbra There are plenty of people that rhyme w/ substance. That pop rap doesn't count as rap, & the people you just mentioned (especially 50) do so solely for the money. They don't give a shit about what they say as long as it brings in some cash. And makes bitches dance.

I know this comment is mad old but I get uptight when people seemingly (or outright) bash rap based on a handfull of assfucks that always seemingly manage to get into the spotlight.

Anyway, good song.

Peace.

[chodykumbra]

@CorneliusMcGee

I agree with you to a degree. My response was to somebody claimed Zach De La Rocha rap lacked substance. Actually i don't remember exactly what they said. But i feel that even a lot of underground rap doesn't really have much substance to it.

[Bojaxs]

If you fear dying, than you believe in an afterlife.

Religious people.

[bamboy1192]

man rage should get back to gether

[geniusgza7]

where have you been the last 3 years?

they are together!

[halimski]

haha

[wootfortoot]

@geniusgza7

i think he ment make a new album

[EvilDomo]

I'm sure they're together. But I don't think there's any new albums coming soon. :[

[muzokskittles]

sick track

[lukkyluke17]

i dunno about these favourite bands i think most wouldnt mix, morello beats slash because slash is a money grabbing bastard there is no way he would do this kinda music, i love rage and odaal are also very good zachs vox are the best around and the new drummer is pretty sick

[intergalactic12]

The drummers from Mars Volta i think

[mifutbol]

ur right but he used 2be

[Tukhtukhturbo]

Slash is an amazing guitarist. He is better than Morello in his own right and vise versa.

[BeastlyGerman]

Matter's what your scoring them on. Creativity, Morello is 10000x better than Slash.

[Tukhtukhturbo]

I know that's what I meant by each one is better in his own right. =)

[SkateFL52]

best track off the EP, and that's saying something.

[stryni]

This track is SIC

[dragracedude1]

perfect band, you say. well heres mine

Singer: Zach de la ro

Lead guitar: Tom Morello

Lead guitar 2: Buckethead

Rhythm:Niel Schon

Bass: Les Claypool

Drums: Niel Peart

[basslos17]

those guys are all amazing and some of the best but would have no chemistry together with to much of a difference in style

[dragracedude1]

I could imagine tom and buckethead getting into killswitch battles during concerts.

[twork89]

vocals= layne staley

guitar=zack wylde, dimebag darrel abbott

bass=rex

drums=vinny paul

[M41nfr4me]

wth? which band is that?

[OliverGlynJones]

no buckethead replace with probably eddie vader or dave weiner replace claypool with Flea and neil pert with carl palmer although ther both very good

[meh88]

I think the whole world would explode if all of them played together... Lol, but seriously, I totally agree with what "basslos17" said.

[albinobuttercups]

neil peart wouldnt fit whatsoever even though he is amazing

[shqiptarmsnry]

Rally round the family, ahhhhhh yeah just another bombtrack. This reminds me of old school rage!!!!!! Rock on!!!!!

[hunterforu1628]

Zach has always been my favorite singer/lyricist, whatever you may call him, i think he's a genius and i hope these two get HUGE

[wag201]

ratm muito foda

[stopbeingcowards]

muta cookie rata mata ttata

[ize1277]

LMAO .. and Zach is a bitchen lyricist

[TheSocialMit]

Jon Theodore is an awesome drummer.. and Zach is a bitchen lyricist.. these guys are cool. Just get DJ Shadow, Tom Morello and Serj Tankian involved and the universe would explode with their greatness.

[neelradhakrishnan]

Serj and Zach... that would be.. interesting.

[donkeyfieldmouse]

Hahaha. my idea of a perfect band:

Perry Farrel on vocals but Zach on lyrics

Slash and Tom Morello on guitar

Flea on Bass

And lst but not least, the unforgetable neail Pert on drums.

[frenchyforlife]

they defiantly have RATM roots, but im no fan of them. I have a feeling that these guys will be huge when they get a few more members.

[checks00]

theres not as much enthusiasm in the music in this as in ratm

[saabinmike]

I think the lyrics should be the focus on this EP. The driving guitars and raw drums only add to the urgency. But just my two cents. I wonder if de la Rocha didn't want to go down the path of the Beastie Boys or The Clash, losing total focus.

[Renthefaceless]

it's a hip hop album, using keyboard and a drum kit. it's a whole different animal.

this project is a true showcase to de la rocha's hugely underrated skill as a lyricist and MC.

[WhackedOut123]

wow ya they dont really sound like RATM and RATM was awesome but this is new and its sick

[Nmostowich]

agreed +1

[buchayze]

boh artists on this track have so much more potential than this...

[pimpriggsley]

i agree completely... they need to add a couple more members and this could literally be considered a new super group.

[CorneliusMcGee]

yea they do. i never even listened to whatever band the drummers from but sounds like i should get on that.

hopefuly theyre doin what priggsley said and searchin for other worthy members.

[never1ess]

the mars volta are are great, you should definitely check them out.. half of at the drive-in went to mars volta. if you've never heard atdi... check them out too.

their first album was sick. the second was a little too experimental for me, minus "the widow" which had the feel of their first album (also the first single).

[Nmostowich]

they are gonna add a bass player they said

[Deathmaker2354]

where did you hear that and do you know who the bassist is?

[Rad1ka1]

It's better to live one day as a lion, than a thousand years as a lamb

[UnevenElefant5]

I R WANTIN MOAR WON DAY AZ A LOIN!!!!!111!!!!!!1111!one111!­!11 ;) love it.

[liamvmt]

this is incedible, i love it.

[MaDGaM3r94]

he was much better in RATM i think but we will see if he turn out better

[safesexmonster]

they trying to sound like RATM here, is this a cover of one of there songs. listen to that lame ass wanabe sound. i like some of what zack de la rocha stands for but the music just ain't the same. it really sounds like a shitty band trying to sound like RATM lmao wierd.

[vkotis]

RATM is awesome. to me this is like a branch off of the RATM tree. i love the sound of the percussion, and along with zack it sounds great!

[birdhouseboy15]

zack will be remembered for ratm, but this stuff is still just as sick

[skateNappreciate]

this songs pretty motivating, zacks gotta point

[gallavan00]

GODDAMN!!! Huge TMV fan, glad to see that Theodore is fucking banging shit out so well, sounds great

[sevendust0706]

fav odaal song

[tnesty]

This new shit is a treat in a lake full of bullshit music that is out these days.

[1Love4556]

Theodore is the bomb digit. With Zach. Dam.., these guys know music.

[glyder1836]

Awesome song. I've been looking for this song for a long time. i had no idea Zach was in a new band, he's a great singer.

[29cynthia29]

My fav track of the EP.

Zack is fucking awesome!

[drivepro]

its awesome.

[boopersbeepers]

i'd say this is my favorite track of the album. it's pretty heavy shit, and jon theodore fucking owns the drums.

[Davemandu5]

I'm native american/white. I know rocha aint racist, i know why he says "White", i get it, just, he makes it seem like he's a racist, which fu*ks his credibility. Why does he stereotype ALL white people to be capitalists and fascists. I'm not.

[Tfr3sh17]

he doesnt, fact of the matter is that those of the european decent have dominated/ran the world for while.

[JRCN84]

Where has he stereotyped ALL whites?

It has to be admitted that whites AS A GROUP are priviliged, just as men as a group are priviliged over women. That doesn't mean that every single white man is an oppressor & exploiter.

However, we ARE complicit if we don't try to change it. Similarly, we in 'the West' are ALL complicit in the looting of the '3rd world' & the violence that it entails, unless we try to stop it.

ORGANISE! ACT!

END THE WARS!

END CAPITALISM!

[JRCN84]

In short, whatever colour your skin is, you need to be RED where it counts.

Anyway.... nice to have Mr de la Rocha back. The Rage is relentless!

[UcanbeGOD]

Someone told me Zach was really speaking out against religion on this cd, is that true? I always thought that he supported it for the most part, and that disappointed me about Rage.

[MaidenPriest420]

red where? your cock

[JRCN84]

MaidenPriest420, you want to discuss my cock? You could at least offer me a drink first.

[MaidenPriest420]

ok wanna drink?

[JRCN84]

No, thanks.

[JRCN84]

No, thanks.

[Davemandu5]

agree with ya totally, but i cant complain, its a long awaited "de la" tripp

[peopleofthesun2]

sickest line:

"I'm in the spirit of Ali Toure', as I target more heads than a priest on Ash Wednesday".

[rustyscalpel68]

Agreed. Pure poetry.

[kyleshike]

yea i hear you... it's actually zach playing a keyboard though. no guitars. i dig this album.

[Mekros05]

Yeah I hear the same thing

[Richona]

thats because thats all they have? its the bands style. if you cant distinguish between songs you have problems xD lol they are good you must agree?

[capnenator]

There actually looking for more members last i heard. Right now though its just the two of em so it does have a lot of the same sound. It all about the lyrics anyway though

[geniusgza7]

actually theres no guitar in the song there actually keyboards

[fattypancakes101]

oh oh im sorry fagget geniusgza7 ,,,,ehhh hem,,,TOM MORELLO SUCKS YOUR ASS !!!!!!!!!!!! hes not a real anarchist hes a joke,,,,,idiot...hahah are u in kindergarden?

[geniusgza7]

haha kindergarden u fukin useless yank!

[fattypancakes101]

fuck this the mars volta dont need to be ruined,,,tom merrelo is a dick sucking fagget,,,,,hes not a rocker hes a poser,,,,jon theadore is a god at expirimental shit tho,,,,,Rock on Volta

[geniusgza7]

what does tom morello have to do with anything? and by the way you cant even spell his name, idiot

[californication1992]

talkin more head than a priest on ash wednesday!

[californication1992]

kinda sounds like wild international... still sick though

[Phexieus]

this sounds EXACTLY like wild international... damn how unorigional

[PrincessVeronica94]

I know just a bit lower

[KillWoundedEatDead]

yins r only payin attention to the keyboard.. you gotta listen to the poetry not the keyboard.

[wackiirahki]

wow, someone actually believes jon theodore is an unknown drummer...someone needs to stop listening to top 40 music...

[Pinkyolder]

ex mars volta drummer right? awesome band. :)

[pennington8377]

This shit sounds like John Bonham on the drums and some Beastie boys on back drop. Pretty fucking cool

[xxNathanNicexx]

First time I heard it I immediately thought of rage, my ex was getting a tat and the artist was listening to it, I was like whaaaa Rage came out with a new one....

[ciscorpio79]

speak for yourself butthole-boy. i heard of this band bcuz of the drummer, it just so hapenns that zack is on this joint as well..RAGE CHANGED MY LIFE

[ratmaslove]

a real metal rocker zack for prez

[KenCat1337]

Zach doesn't believe in the presidency..

He believes in liberty and equality, both of which are fuckin impossible with a ruler that decides things for you.

VivA,

Peace.

[bollagi]

He's a communist and proud of it.

[KenCat1337]

He said he followed the philosophy of Zapatismo, which is a mixture of autonomism, anarchism and communism.

[jeianafa12547dj]

Yeah, liberty can be obtained when the people who follow make sure it's never tainted, and always on the ready for it to be taken away. But if the people allow gov't to play a game where they do everything for themselves and not the people then that's not liberty. I like Zack's revolution message, but Communism doesn't work like Karl Marx saw, Not the way Lenin, Stalin, and Castro did it.

[KenCat1337]

"Yeah, liberty can be obtained when the people who follow make sure it's never tainted"

When liberated, you do not follow -- you decide for yourself. There is no dictator, president or minister of liberty.

[KillWoundedEatDead]

if ur workin class and not a communist then you need to start payin attention.

[definitelynotu]

You said it!

[brimercam]

this is not the RIGHT SONG, this is "WILD INTERNATIONAL", yo.
