CKY (short for “Camp Kill Yourself”) is a 4-piece rock band consisting of Deron Miller (vocals, guitar, bass), Chad I Ginsburg (guitar, vocals, bass), Jess Margera (drums), and Matt “Dice” Deis (bass). Deron and Chad both played bass on all 4 of their albums, but Matt will take over when they do their next album and has now taken over for their live shows. They share their name with a series of skate videos produced by Bam Margera, who is the brother of the drummer. CKY’s music has been featured in the four CKY videos and Jackass, and the track

96 Quite Bitter Beings from their album Volume 1 also featured on the video game Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3. The songs

Sporadic Movement from the album Infiltrate Destroy Rebuild and

The Human Drive in Hi-Fi from Volume 1 were in the video game Backyard Wrestling: Don’t Try This At Home. They were also featured in several movie soundtracks such as Resident Evil: Apocalypse.

It is very hard to categorize CKY into a specific genre. Their songs vary from soft slow ballads such as

Sara’s Mask and

Close Yet Far to heavy, near death metal songs such as

Sniped. The basis of their songs is slowed down metal guitar parts with thick rock groove added and tweaked production laced with dense melody, which puts them in the loose genre of rock.

I fucking love how underrated this band are. Usually I love a band before it hits the mainstream and then go off them, but these have been a favourite since I first heard them. :D

The riff from 96 quite bitter beings always hit me hard since i 1st heard it years ago on the 1st episode of jackass. I knew Jess was Bam's brother but i never bothered looking into the band. What a mistake that was. Great sound.
