Ulrika Spacek are an English alternative rock band formed in 2014 based in London. Despite formation in Berlin in Spring ’14 the band relocated to Homerton, East London where they completed the debut album at a shared house named KEN. Soon after saw the formation of 'Oysterland', a self-curated night that combined the band's earliest live performances with a series of art exhibitions. They released "The Album Paranoia" in February 2016 . Second album "Modern English Decoration" followed in June 2017, previewing songs via the answering machine of KEN. Initial copies of the album on vinyl came with a bonus 7", which neglected to include a tracklisting. One of the tracks was later confirmed to be a cover version of a song by Parsley Sounds entitled Ease Yourself And Glide. Commenting on plans for forthcoming releases, frontman Rhys Edwards stated that "We see our first two albums as brother and sister records and think it will be nice to leave them both out there for a little while before we think about putting out another record". On 10th March 2023 the band announced long awaited third album ’Compact Trauma’ due for release 10th March. Recording of the album began at KEN in 2018 but following the loss of the band’s hub was completed in various locations across a 4 year period. The record stands as a next chapter, a culmination of new ideas and combined sound of the first two records and the bands Suggestive Listening E.P.
