Every 4 years, the world drops everything and moves to the edges of their seats as the drama, passion and thrill of the World Cup comes alive. Jose "Aladdin" Barrales, frontman for the Pomona, CA thrash act, BONDED BY BLOOD has been a soccer fan from birth. For him and countless others across the globe, there is no greater time than right now. In the following statement, Jose expels his excitement over the World Cup and gives insight about whom he thinks could win:
"After four years of waiting, the World Cup is finally here. Thirty-two countries competing for the chance to raise that cup. Being a soccer fan since I was young, this is a very exciting tournament. It's been almost a week now since the WC started and all first games have been played. I didn't get to watch all of them but I did watch most and I can tell you Germany looks very strong and are one of my favorites to win the cup. Anything can happen in this cup Switzerland just gave Spain (a favorite to win the cup and Euro champs) a big upset on a 1 to 0 score. Being from Mexican descent, my love and tears go to my "selection" and after this 2 to 0 score over France today I have even more faith on my Mexican team. My top favorites to win the cup would be Germany, Holland, Brazil and why not maybe Mexico can surprise you. I will sit here with a beer in hand, waiting the next round, as games get more exciting. VIVA EL FUTBOL!"
