Mountain Czar is an EP by the instrumental stoner rock band Karma to Burn. It was released on February 26, 2016, by SPV and Rodeostar Records.[1]

Unlike their previous release Arch Stanton, Mountain Czar is not exclusively instrumental, with one track featuring Italian vocalist Stefanie Savy.[6][7] The song, "Uccidendo Un Sogno," is an Italian-language rewrite of the Tom Petty song Runnin' Down a Dream. Similar to Arch Stanton's album closer, Mountain Czar's closing track also contains a dialogue snippet from the Spaghetti Western, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
