If you have to ask who Bam Margera is, we have to ask if you live in a cave or own a television. Our intention is not to diminish cave dwellers, but it's been our experience that most people have some sort of communication with the outside world and popular culture, and as such have at one point or another crossed paths with skateboarder & MTV icon Bam Margera, and now self-declared rock music championer. You're not one of those people? Well here's a quick insight into the man known as Bam and a little project we like to call "Viva La Bands":
CD features new, unreleased and hit singles for the following bands: Daniel Lioneye, HIM, The 69 Eyes, Atrocity, The Rasmus, The Sounds, Negative, Fireball Ministry, Turbonegro, The Datsuns, Clutch, CKY, D-A-D, The Beatsteaks, Kill Hannah, Cradle of Filth, Viking Skull, Helltrain, Bendover, Children of Bodom, & Smack
Bonus DVD features music videos directed by Bam for HIM, CKY, Clutch, & The 69 Eyes, lost episode of "Viva La Bam" in Iceland, bonus outtakes, skating footage, and a special preview of "Tony Hawk's American Wasteland" videogame for Activision In the March issue of Teen People, Bam was voted Most Popular Athlete to make the transition to Entertainment
Bam is one of MTV's most recognizable stars, from his participation in "Jackass" (the TV show and movie), to his own hit show "Viva La Bam" now going into it's 5th season (Premiere episode airs 6/26 on MTV)
Special album packaging includes exclusive foldout poster and quotes from Bam on why you NEED to know about the bands on the album
