An Answer Can Be Found by CKY

An Answer Can Be Found, CKY's third album, arrived on June 28, 2005, through Island in North America and Mercury in Europe, and the West Chester, Pennsylvania, crew went in billing it as their magnum opus. Guitarist Chad I Ginsburg produced it at studios in California and New York City, and it was once going to be called The Butcher's Hand.

Deron Miller wrote the songs with Ginsburg's help, several of them dating from the band's early days, and the core trio of Miller, Ginsburg and drummer Jess Margera cut it with Miller and Ginsburg splitting the bass parts between them. The sound is thick, sludgy and swaggering, detuned riffs rolling like a skate video soundtrack turned up too loud. Critics were split on whether the band had moved forward at all, but the record climbed to number 35 on the Billboard 200, their best showing, and "Familiar Realm" reached number 32 on the Mainstream Rock chart.
