Blabbermouth.net reports that Rage Against the Machine vocalist Zack de la Rocha and ex-Mars Volta drummer Jon Theodore, aka One Day As A Lion, have a new track called "Wild International" posted on their MySpace page.

I gave it a listen. It's no "Bulls on Parade," but it's kinda tight. Listen for yourself here.

Blabbermouth reports:

The song comes off the group's eponymous debut EP, which is scheduled for release on July 22 via Anti Records.

According to the band, ONE DAY AS A LION's name was "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."

Read the rest of that report here. But while that's all good and well, inquiring minds want to know whatever happened to that solo album Zack de la Rocha has supposedly been working on for the last decade?
