"96 Quite Bitter Beings" is a song by CKY released in 1999 on the album "Volume 1". The song "96 Quite Bitter Beings" is about the inhabitants of the fictional town of Hellview, who murder anyone who comes near their city in the middle of nowhere. It is regarded to be the band's breakthrough and most recognized song, appearing on the soundtracks of "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3" and the CKY video series chiefly produced by pro-skateboarder Bam Margera (drummer Jess Margera's brother).

The song's story bares a striking resemblance to the movie "Two Thousand Maniacs" and the story "Children of the Corn".

The song ends abruptly. It is unknown whether this is a studio mistake or if it was done purposely.

The song's main riff was sampled by Bazaar Royale on "What's it All For" for the Cradle 2 the Grave soundtrack.

This Song was featured in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3

Music video

A video was directed by Bam Margera and features the band playing and a car chase scene between Bam and his friends doing various Jackass stunts. Only 50 copies are printed of this single/demo.
