96 Bitter Beings announce new album ‘Return To Hellview’

96 BITTER BEINGS have announced a new album!

Titled Return To Hellview, the upcoming album from the band spear-headed by former CKY frontman Deron Miller is the follow-up to 2022’s Synergy Restored, and is scheduled to be released in June this year, via Nuclear Blast Records.

The upcoming album features a collection of fan-favourite, re-recorded CKY tracks from Miller‘s time with the band. Speaking about the upcoming album, he shares, “revisiting these songs was a blast. I hadn’t heard the original versions in so long but I was able to get a lot of the re-recordings done just from memory. When the recording process got down to covering specific details of all the tracks, that’s when I went back and listened to the original versions.

I love all the songs but there’s always been issues that bothered me about the originals. A lot of my problems with them were arbitrary and not that important…things that I just wanted to fix that most listeners wouldn’t even notice. But there were some things I wanted to add to these songs and some things I wanted to take out. The goal was to challenge myself to redo these classic tracks in a way that they could be heard as remixes instead of re-recordings. I think we succeeded.

I hope a lot of fans will hear this album as remixes of the originals. Not many bands have access to the original masters that are owned by record companies and therefore don’t have the option to remix anything. We’re excited to see the response.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, 96 BITTER BEINGS have released a new song from the upcoming album; a re-recording of Flesh Into Gear. Speaking about the re-recorded song, Miller says, ”
