Song(s) of the Day # 2,304 Ulrika Spacek

 


Like The Radiohead who decide they'd prefer to stay underground. Formed in 2014 in the environs of Reading EXPO is their fourth album which by any standards is slow going but they've been active on other projects in the meantime.

EXPO is slightly more interiorised in tone than 2023's Compact Trauma which still has my ears ringing three years after its release.. But it's a fascinating record on its own terms. Rhythmic and subtle. Easing me into Saturday's tributary. Flowing on to the ocean.

I find  Ulrika Spacek comforting. they're like the mechanism of a precisely governed wrist watch. The tick tock mechanisms never missing a thing.
