CKY is an American rock band from West Chester, Pennsylvania. Formed in 1998 by Deron Miller, Chad I Ginsburg and Jess Margera, the group released its first two albums Volume 1 and Volume 2 (a compilation of songs and skits from the first CKY video) on Teil Martin/Distant Recordings in 1999, supported by lead single "96 Quite Bitter Beings". [1] After signing with Island/Def Jam, the band followed their debuts up in 2002 with Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild , which was their first release to chart when it reached number 99 on the US Billboard 200 and number 108 on the UK Albums Chart. [2] [3] Lead single "Familiar Realm" reached the US Mainstream Rock top 40. [4] In 2005, CKY issued An Answer Can Be Found and reached number 35 of the Billboard 200, [2] with "Familiar Realm" peaking at number 32 on the Mainstream Rock chart. [4]
With Matt Deis added as its first full-time bassist, CKY signed with Roadrunner Records in 2006 and released Carver City in 2009. [1] The album reached number 46 on the US Billboard 200, [2] number 4 on the Top Hard Rock Albums chart, [5] and number 14 on the Top Rock Albums chart. [6] In March 2011, the group released its first career-retrospective album B-Sides & Rarities , followed by B-Sides & Rarities Volume II later in the year. [7] After continued tensions between band members, frontman Deron Miller left CKY in 2011; he was replaced by Daniel Davies for a number of shows in 2012 and later in 2015, before the group went on an extended hiatus. [8] [9]
CKY returned in 2016 with Ginsburg taking over lead vocals, signing with Entertainment One Music and releasing The Phoenix in 2017. [10] The album was the band's first since its debut not to chart on the Billboard 200, although it did reach the top 20 of the Independent Albums chart. [11] The limited edition EP Too Precious to Kill was released in 2018 to support Record Store Day, featuring four new tracks. [12] In 2020, the group released a livestreamed show dubbed fuCKYou 2020 on vinyl. [13]
