Volume 1 (originally released as a self-titled album under the name Camp Kill Yourself) is the debut studio album by American rock band CKY. Recorded at The Ground Hog Studios in Holland, Pennsylvania, it was produced, engineered and mixed by guitarist Chad I Ginsburg, and originally released on February 27, 1999, by Distant Recordings and Teil Martin International. Since its initial release under the title Camp Kill Yourself, the album has been reissued a number of times by various record labels with different titles and album covers. Most of the material for Volume 1 was written and arranged by original CKY lead vocalist and guitarist Deron Miller, prior to Ginsburg's addition in 1998 which marked the official formation of the band. During this time, Miller and drummer Jess Margera were performing under the name Oil with live bassist Ryan Bruni. Miller performed bass on the album, although Bruni is featured on the songs "The Human Drive in Hi-Fi" (backing vocals) and "Lost in a Contraption" (additional bass). Despite not registering on any record charts, Volume 1 is notable in CKY's back-catalogue for featuring a number of the band's signature songs, including arguably their most well-known track "96 Quite Bitter Beings". Many of the songs were originally featured on skateboarding and stunt videos produced by Margera's brother Bam, including the CKY video series with which the band shares its name. "96 Quite Bitter Beings" was released as a single in 1999 and 2010 (remastered).
