96 Bitter Beings (abbreviated 96BB) is an American alternative metal band from Los Angeles. Formed in 2016 by former CKY frontman Deron Miller, the group was originally known as MechaCKY and intended to serve as the vocalist and guitarist's own continuation of the group following his departure in 2011. Miller completed the band's initial lineup with the same three members as had been in the relaunched Foreign Objects – lead guitarist Kenneth Hunter, bassist Shaun Luera and drummer Tim Luera. Later that year, MechaCKY was renamed 96 Bitter Beings, after the CKY song "96 Quite Bitter Beings".
After a successful crowdfunding campaign, 96 Bitter Beings released the first of two planned albums in 2018, Camp Pain, to those who contributed to the campaign. The band signed with Nuclear Blast in 2022 and released the second album Synergy Restored at the end of the year. Prior to the album's release, the Luera brothers suddenly left the group just before a live show. They were replaced by Matty Janaitis (formerly of CKY) on bass and Tuomas Vuorio on drums. In May 2023, Hunter also announced that he was leaving the band, blaming Miller for the breakup of the original lineup.
