Swedes Rock! Bam Signs Vains of Jenna

vainsofjenna
The land of blond people and baby seal clubbers rocks! Bam Margera has signed Sweden's Vains of Jenna to a full blown contract on his label Filthy Note. Vains will be touring the US soon. Bam tells us why he's getting into the music biz:

"It's so easy for me to let the kids know what bands are good and what bands aren't. Next thing you know, everyone starts recognizing [the music], they do research and find out that they're rockin'. I can shrink-wrap band posters with my skateboards, of which I sell 10,000 a month. If Island Records asked Element to do that, they'd say, 'No. Give me 50 grand to do it.'

Vains of Jenna lead singer Lizzy Devine says why he decided to sign with Bam:

"Bam's such a huge person in the U.S., and in the whole world, kids really look up to him. If he can get some 15-year-old to buy our album and they really enjoy it, that's perfect."

Well that and it's not like the music industry is batting down the doors of Swedish glam bands. And you know Lizzy's real name is something like Ruutenswaaaaager.
