What Burns Never Returns is the third album from Don Caballero, a Pittsburgh-based math rock band. What Burns Never Returns was released on Touch and Go Records in 1998 and was a reunion of sorts for the band -- it was their first album after a two-year hiatus and it marked the return of original bassist Pat Morris.
The album is notable for guitarist Ian Williams' first significant experimentation with pedals and other electronic effects. This style would be prevalent in both Williams and the band's subsequent work.

[edit] Miscellanea
In a 2006 interview with the e-zine Space City Rock, Damon Che revealed that he played guitar on some Don Caballero songs, including a passage in "Delivering the Groceries...".
The song title "Delivering the Groceries at 138 Beats Per Minute" comes from David Lee Roth's autobiography Crazy From The Heat. Damon Che's love of Van Halen is perhaps best exemplified by the album Songs for the Terrestrially Challenged by his other band The Speaking Canaries, which features not one but two Van Halen covers.
"Room Temperature Suite" is a medley of the songs "Trey Dog's Acid" and "Room Temperature Lounge", both of which were released as a seven inch single on Touch and Go Records in 1997, then re-released on Singles Breaking Up (Vol. 1) in 1999.
