This article is about the desert rock group. For the album by The Waterboys, see Karma to Burn (album).

Karma to Burn was a stoner rock band from Morgantown, West Virginia comprising guitarist William Mecum, bassist Rich Mullins and drummer Nathan Limbaugh (later to be replaced by Rob Oswald for Wild, Wonderful Purgatory).

The band were noted for their uncompromising instrumental sound, echoing that of such desert rock bands as Kyuss and the Obsessed, although the band's preferred genre is somewhat dubiously entitled "malternative".^[1]

The band unofficially disbanded sometime in mid-2002, when bassist Rich Mullins joined Speedealer. Currently, Mullins is playing in the Los Angeles based band Year Long Disaster, Oswald is working as a Drug and Alcohol counsellor in L.A. and Will Mecum is playing guitar in Treasure Cat.
