Where this album fits
- Career context
- Released in 2005, 'Karma to Burn' marks The Waterboys' return after a six-year hiatus following their album 'Universal Hall.' At this point in their career, the band had evolved from their earlier sound into a more reflective and mature style, blending folk rock with Celtic influences. The album reflects a period of introspection for frontman Mike Scott.
