That bass line though!
primo stuff
The bass sound is MIGHTY. How did you get that?
@@TobysGuitarGearDemos DI>Waves CLA3>Waves CLA Bass>Kush Audio REDDI plugin
That Donut hat though!
OMG that part just grabbed me. What a cool bass part; I'd never have thought to do that. Great stuff.
As soon a i saw "classic riff" and bam margera in the thumbnail i immediately thought "its 96 quite bitter beings isnt it"
That and Brandon's Chinese Freestyle keep popping up out of nowhere across the internet for me.
YOU!
Knowing the video before seeing the video lol
@@ChaseThePinballWizard YOU TOO
@@schreckles that freestyle had ZERO business slapping like it did. BURNED into my memory
I knew what the riff was before clicking the video. Loved this song!
Flesh into Gear is one of the greatest songs ever made. The riff of 96 bb is iconic even for people who don’t like skating.
I just came here to read someone talking about this fucking riff. It always gives me chills.
Flesh into Gear is great! Testing is probably my favorite though
Flesh Into Gear is the fuckin shit
I love flesh into gear
FLESH INTO GEAR MYSELF APPEARS DISSECTED AND PRETENTIOUS
This song is blowing up again for some reason. I've seen it all over the place.
It's so sick.
I think it’s partially because polyphia covered it and a guy made a short on it that blew up pretty big
CkY got back together a few years ago and released a banger album and are touring again, so I assume that is part of it
The Dead South has a pretty cool version if you’re into folky stuff.
@@partytom4184 well idk what you consider "back together" but its just jesse and chad now with randoms. Been like that for a long time they just stopped touring for awhile.
The old lead man has a "newish" band called "96 bitter beings" and the vibe is the same. They put out an album about a year ago
I WAS ABLE TO GEUSS THAT RIFF BY THE THUMBNAIL, THAT JUST GOES TO SHOW YOU HOW BIG IT WAS
I did as well lol
TRUE!
Exactly!! It’s a really fun song to play too
And me
Yup
Sink into The Underground is another goddamn banger
Disengage the simulator, flesh into gear, shippensburg, escape from hellview, close yet far, Sara's mask, behind the screams all great songs.
what i loved about this is that from the thumbnail i already could hear the riff
Have always loved this riff. A classic for sure. That and Inhuman Creation Station.
I was absolutely obsessed with this band and I genuinely think Miller is one of the more underrated guitarists out there, such a fascinating and unique style
yes! He made a lot of sick riffs
Classic for sure. I remember hearing my buddy play it in high school and despite never having heard the song before I was like "dude, you've got to teach me that riff right now."
Happy to see that Deron Miller is still getting recognition after so many years.
Million dollar riff.
As a 80s baby who grew up skating, and lived in Philly and VA between parents. These CKY tapes and the Big Brother and eventually Jackass stuff was just the backround noise and visualizations of my growing up years lol
This was the riff that got me into learning guitar and wanting to play in/front a band. One of the most underrated bands of the late 90s/early 2000s with a unique sound.
You ever hear neurosis?
I'm almost certain the last B at the end of the roof is slid into from below, but other than that, this was a damn near perfect sound emulation.
CKY2K was one of our over-watched vids in college. Love these guys and love this riff!
oh man I watched that video so much 😅
Baker 3 was on loop in my crew
@@CharleySuede Baker Baker
CKY were why all my friends started playing guitar. I wanted to do something different so I learnt bass.
I knew you were going to talk about that riff just by looking the thumbnail
Love these videos! I forgot about this song... that riff is so perfect.
Had no clue the bass line was that cool - great video. Saw them live once in Anaheim, was a fun show. Bummer they imploded...
It's awesome how many of us instantly knew what song this was from the thumbnail...
I saw them live a few years back. Was awesome to re-live a completely different time if only for a night!
Can’t wait to see them on May 25th!!!
Man, I was 13 years old in 1999 so I can absolutely recognise my own teenage years in what you described. What a crazy time to be young! I still listen to the first 2 CKY records every few years. Such a great band and some very tasty riffs. Whenever I hear an OC2 or see someone playing a Parker Fly, I can’t help but think of CKY.
Amazing cover, man! Brought me to my teenage years.
That riff made me fall in love with octave pedals. Now I’m obsessed I use the Boss OC5 with the Drop myself
ahhhh this brings me back.
I was fortunate enough to catch them on the carver city tour. I was 15 and it was the first show i ever attended. My ears rang for 4 days straight
Derons current band is call 96 Bitter Beings. They sound like classic cKy
You ar emissing the gliss (quick slide into a note) on the 2nd to last note of the riff. It adds all the style and flare to this riff!
this song is FIRE!
96 quite bitter beings is the BEST riff of all time, i don't care what anyone says...
I knew it. I think it's so ingrained with jackass because it got popular alongside bam joining jackass and followed him as he branched out so it had multiple platforms that's its attached to
This is crazy I just learned this riff like 3 weeks ago for the first time
This brings back some memories 😁 Great video!
Thanks buddy!
i immediately know what riff it was gonna be by the title
I saw CKY perform in college, they opened for Atreyu (there's a sentence I never thought it'd say). I don't remeber much, but I remember the lead singer was playing a Parker and just definitely playing lead lines while singing and I'm 100% sure he never looked at the fretboard.
Just looked it up (I can't believe the internet has record of dates and times so far back) it was just over 21 years ago, CKY, Atreyu and Memento
Deron Miller is a multi-tasking legend. Id argue he's even better than Hetfield at singing and playing at once. Its certainly debatable.
I first heard the song on a 411VM Video that I downloaded in 2004. I still have it on my HDD!
This song is still great
I like Escape from Hellview of everything they made.
NDSP Gojira has a good octave effect that nails this sound
saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame!!! hitting a soft spot there
Funny to seed this pop up given I've been on a CKY kick. Miller has such sick riffs. Disengage The Simulator is another insane riff that has a weird bounce and swing to it.
Cky for his Jackass type stuff and pretty much anything off of the Razorblade Romance album from HIM for his skating stuff.
So my car just died and I had to get SOMETHING… so today I drove home from work in my new ‘02 Accord blasting this through the Kenwood with the aux cord. High school af
The octave pedal is the “secret” essential ingredient in making this sound like it does. Dunno why it just adds this vibe to the whole thing. Its a great riff
I was kinda hoping it was Turbonegro's All My Friends Are Dead but considering I'm going to see the (new) CKY lineup this month, this was a great recommendation!
everything about this riff reminds me of early Billy Talent, which was similarly sub-culture defining for a similar type of Canadian teenager in the 2010s
As a kid i thought cky vol 1 was a perfect album no bad songs. Thanks for the deep dive. Super interesting bass line. 🥂
Feeling a strong Inspector Gadget theme song vibe there 😉
haha
The catchiest riff ever written. CKY has some amazing songs for sure. Darron's Melo death band World Under Blood has some really awesome guitar work as well.
What a song this is
96 Bitter Beings by CKY
Loved the CKY movies!
as a bass player i came here to learn the guitar part because i made the same assumptions you did-i think i like the bass part more!
Disengage the Simulator is a really fun riff to play. I feel like a monkey swinging from tree to tree every time I play it.
Yes! My favorite is probably 'Testing'! Such a great riff
Always dug that sound, in general. Something about using the octaver with those kinds of riffs just really cuts through. I know Derron is more into death metal and prog but because it's so riff-centric, it really is comfortable in a desert rock/stoner metal setting.
I'm ashamed to say I'd first heard the song while in Iraq yearssss after it was out.
Instant ear worm that I had to sit down and learn. Still one of my favorite riffs to warmup. with.
Helps you get your muting in check and there's some awesome arpeggio practice slipped it.
I knew it from the thumbnail... but "Riff that defined a generation" HARD AGREE.
I’ve always thought the brilliance of their music was inversely proportionate to the stupidity of the stunts in those videos…. You should do more cky riffs. The way they entangle melodies is phenomenal.
You gotta slide into that penultimate note!
You just wanted to say penultimate
@@vav413 You just wanted to say ‘just’
Every time I turn on the octave effect on anything this is the first riff I play.
@LivingroomGearDemos great video but the mix of this video seems to be lacking a lot of low end that your videos normally have? Just wanted to note this in case you were unaware or if you are aware, please bring back the lows!
Hey, for the talking parts or the song?
I'm Brazilian this riff resonates with me exactly the same way you described: 2000's, Bam Margera, Tony Hawks Pro Skater, playing my acqua blue strat with a Zoom 505 and a crappy amp.
Zoom 505 ❤️
This song slams though, first time I ever heard it was in Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 or 3
Also for some reason, at one point my friend and I set “If You Must” as the only song that plays, and we would forget the next time we played, and it would just repeat. To us that was the funniest thing ever.
CKY!! Hell yes Deron was the best vocalist for that band. Awesome band.
Deron Miller is a fucking genius.
Dude thank you for reminding me that I literally lived the greatest childhood ever 😊 btw I’m at the skatepark watching this right now 😂
cky was so sick
Instead of hammer-ons and pull-offs, pick every note. It's key to nailing the iconic sound
CKY is going back on tour!
There's no CKY without Deron
Ahhh so i did timeline slip. I remember clearly that in my timeline it was called 96 quite BETTER beings
Saw the face and knew. I still needs to get me an octave down.
Used to have this song on repeat in Tony Hawk
I still Rock IDR a lot. Peak cky
Hahaha I came here thinking it was going to be Right Here In My Arms by HIM 😊
I saw the thumbnail and for some reason heard the King of the Hill theme.
Deron and Chad were a brilliant writing duo. CKY band came out at the right and wrong time, in my opinion. It was right in line with Bam's videos and it catapulted the band into stardom, but if those songs were created and released with more of a social media presence, I think it would've been even bigger.
YEAH YEAH YEAH
What is the song used in the intro, 0:03
I would argue that you really need an analogue octaver and not a digital pitch shifter for the full effect but im sad like that.
"The ultimate way of telling someone... OH! You were into dumb stuff 20 years ago, too."
💯💯💯💯💯😂 Perfectly said! LOL.
Excellent breakdown on this tune. Thanks for your hardwork making this vid!
High school flashbacks coming on hard - HOW DID YOU KNOW?
;)
I remember thinking you could only get this tone on a Parker fly
I about shit my pants when I saw the picture of the guitar at 2:01 because I own that guitar and have never seen that picture before.
Ahah really? That’s your exact guitar?
@@LivingroomGearDemos yeah I bought it from Deron quite a few years ago. Got to sit down and jam with him for a few hours. Was really a surreal experience. That picture was from a guitar shop I brought to to tune it up. Puts all of my other guitars to shame.
The Tony Hawk Pro Skater soundtracks are bangers.
Daron Miller used to play with a wound g string
Weird, I was just thinking about this rift, guess I always am 😂
Yes!! I was born in 97. I remember seeing the music video on UA-cam when I was like 12 or so. I had started learning guitar a year earlier and was finally able to play this riff. Still love to play it all these years later, iconic
The song also had cool lyrcis
Bernadette Nere!
Look up the cover by the dead south
Haha I thought it was gonna be the Jackass riff but yeah this riff is amazing.
I can play that riff on bass. I loved it that much and dont have a guitar. And yes its tricky. Hes very swingy
The bass part is sick tho
Its a harder riff than you'd expect when you listen to it.
I could hear the riff on the thumbnail 😂
Never heard that riff before and I was a young and obsessed CD hoarder back then. I couldn't stomach jackass though, so maybe that's why
I thought this was gonna be about that minutemen intro for jackass
Oh. Not Minutemen.
Now do Derons current band!
