The reunion of Karma to Burn is a story The Obelisk has been following since it was announced, and now that the resulting Scott Reeder-produced album, Appalachian Incantation, is just a week away from release on Napalm Records and the band are gearing up for a tour culminating with a performance at Rocklahoma (really?), I’m more than happy to showcase the premiere video, “Waiting on the Western World,” which features the vocals of Dan Davies of Year Long Disaster. Here it is with some PR wire whathaveyou tossed in for good measure:

STROBE!!!

Produced by Scott Reeder (ex-Kyuss, Black Math Horseman producer), Appalachian Incantation is the band’s first studio album in eight years. Known as an instrumental outfit, Karma to Burn invited two vocalists to join them for the new album: Daniel Davies of Year Long Disaster lends vocals to “Waiting on the Western World” and legendary Kyuss singer John Garcia performs on “Two Times” (exclusive to the bonus disc included with the first 2,000 copies of Appalachian Incantation).
