America Welcomes "FIFA '08," Evan Basks in Soundtrack

So I can't wait to get my hands on the latest FIFA game, "FIFA '08." I'm actually not a huge fan of soccer games, but I can't help but be excited about this one. Why? For a very typical-of-me reason.

The soundtrack features a lot of great music from around the world.

There are some great songs by some great bands. I know that I do this way too much, but I guess I just write about things that make me happy. Wouldn't you?

Art Brut - Direct Hit
CSS - Off the Hook
!!! (pronounced chk-chk-chk) - All My Heroes are Weirdos
Peter, Bjorn and John - Young Folks
Bondo de Role - Solta O Frango
Robyn - Bum Like You
Simian Mobile Disco - I Believe

And there are a bunch of things I've never heard before, including an Italian group called Planet Funk.
