Welcome to the most complete, fresh and libelous website about West-Virginian stoner sludge rock band KARMA TO BURN. According to the band, this site is as official as it gets.

LATEST NEWS

March 2009
The US tour for April and May is as good as booked. Please check the K2B MySpace page for the most recent updates.

The Euro tour is under construction. You can contact the booker through the MySpace page or through the webmaster of this highly outdated piece of cyberwaste...

This website is soooooo 1998, and I intend to keep it like that. It is more like a scrapbook... Snapshots, coincidental tidbits, anekdotes; they tell you more about a band that the official bio or a newspaper interview. Right on!

February 2009: K2B is back!
A few days ago I got this in my mailbox from Rob Oswald, K2B's drummer:
"Thought you should be the first to know. Karma To Burn are currently planning to play live in The States as well as EU/UK. Still working on all the logistics but the ball is rolling. Looks like we will be seeing you in the near future after all. Keep It Rock!

A couple of days later, I received this from Rich:
KTB is officially a band, we are about to start booking shows. We have contacted Matte at SOL about booking us and he is starting to do it. Will be in Europe in July. We are going to record and we are trying to figure out what to do label wise right now. Its all very exciting for us.

Which means.... I have to update a 7 year old website now! Ha, it will be worth it.

July 2007: K2B 3CD Box !!!
Our first update in 5 years... We decided to leave the webste exactly as it was when K2B split up in 2002. But now there's a good reason to break the silence. Metal Mind Productions from Poland will be releasing a 3 CD box set with all 3 albums and a lot of bonus material.

DISC 1 BONUS TRACKS: TWENTY EIGHT - THIRTY FOUR - NINE - TWENTY - SIX
All from bootleg recordings from Utrecht (NL), 7 March 2000

DISC 2 BONUS TRACKS: THIRTY - THIRTY TREE - THIRTY TWO - TWENTY
All taken from EP 30.33.32.20
TWENTY NINE - THIRTY ONE Also from those bootleg recordings from Utrecht (NL)

DISC 3 BONUS TRACKS
ONE - THREE - TWENTY TWO - SEVEN - EIGHT - SIX
Recorded during Dynamo Festival 1997.


April 2002: K2B split???
OK this isn't coming from the band. But a usually reliable source has drawn the conclusion that K2B are splitting up, because Rich (bass) has joined Speedealer. I did get some info from the Speedealer mailing list to confirm it: "Officially joining the SPEEDEALER ranks on the Motorhead tour is new bassist RICH MULLINS, formerly a founding member of West Virginia's true-original instrumetallists KARMA TO BURN." It says nothing about how definite it is...
BTW Roadrunner was very quick to make this rumor official news. Those fucking suits like to slag off the band they fired because they fired the vocalist they were forced to have by these suits. Corporate rock still sucks...
