CKY (abbreviation of Camp Kill Yourself)[4] is an American rock band from West Chester, Pennsylvania. Formed in early 1998, the group was originally centred around the trio of Deron Miller on guitar and lead vocals, Chad I Ginsburg on lead guitar and Jess Margera on drums.
The band debuted in 1999 with Volume 1, gaining underground recognition from its association with the CKY video series produced by Margera's brother, skateboarder Bam Margera. After signing with The Island Def Jam Music Group, CKY released its second album Infiltrate•Destroy•Rebuild in 2002, which reached the top half of the US Billboard 200 chart. The 2005 follow-up An Answer Can Be Found reached the US top 40, after which the band (with bassist Matt Deis) released Carver City on Roadrunner Records. In late-2011, following many years of tensions between himself and the other members, Miller left CKY.
Following Miller's departure, CKY spent several years making only sporadic live appearances. The band played shows with stand-in frontman Daniel Davies during 2012 and 2015, before Ginsburg took over lead vocal duties for the group's studio return, 2017's The Phoenix. Deis, who had returned to the band in 2015, left CKY for a second time in 2019, after which Ginsburg and Margera performed with a string of touring bassists, and briefly as a two-piece. Since 2022, the group has been working on a sixth studio album, as well as touring with bassist Ronnie Elvis James, a former member of Ginsburg's 2015 solo band.

Our first record label, Volcom - they had a problem with it. They thought they'd get sued by angry parents, you know. So we kinda just shortened it to CKY. Actually, they were calling us Camp for a while.
