Karma to Burn was a desert rock/psychedelic rock band from Morgantown, West Virginia (US) comprised of guitarist William Mecum, bassist Rich Mullins and drummer Nathan Limbaugh (later to be replaced by Rob Oswald for Wild, Wonderful Purgatory).
Some early reports on Karma To Burn stated that the band had "vocalist problems". The truth of the matter is the band is at heart an instrumental band. The band had experimented with vocalists before (ex-Kyuss frontman John Garcia briefly worked with them), but a vocalist (Jason Jarosz) was recruited for their debut only to satisfy their record label. Their second album features traditional rock songs in an nontraditional form! All riff-oriented songs are covering all ends of the rock spectrum ranging from AC/DC blue-rhythms to chugging Helmet riffs to more Joy Division-ish flavor (#32) that was displayed on the debut.
