"Seaforth" was the first word from Space Heavy: King Krule put it out on 13 April 2023, the same day Archy Marshall announced the album, and XL Recordings and Matador followed with the full record on 9 June. It's Marshall's fifth studio album and his fourth under the King Krule name, pieced together from 2020 to 2022 as he shuttled between homes in London and Liverpool, and that in-between life became its theme: lost connections, people and situations slipping away.
On paper the song is a chamber piece in miniature. Ignacio Salvadores plays bass, guitar, saxophone, clarinet, flute and vibraphone, George Bass handles drums and harmonium, and both add vocals. Sean O'Hagan is credited with strings, alongside Ellie Fagg and Natalie Klouda on violin, Amy May on viola and Chris Fish on cello. Marshall mixed it himself with Dilip Harris.
