Almost Heathen is the third studio album by the stoner rock band Karma to Burn. It was released on September 4, 2001, by Spitfire Records. It was the last album released before their seven-year disbandment in 2002. The album was reissued in 2008 by Metal Mind Productions[1] and again in 2022 by Heavy Psych Sounds Records.[2]
The album title is a play on the former slogan of West Virginia, "Almost Heaven".
Exclaim! wrote that "you either get the fact that they are an all-instrumental trio playing groovy, fuzzed-out rock or you don't ... the trio breaks down into more funky terrain."[3] The Evening Times thought that "the listener is assailed by driving tracks of musical virtuosity where the guitars are to the fore."[4] The Palm Beach Post called the tracks "hypnotic" and "a heavy blend of fuzzy guitars and relentless drums."[5]
