Ulfilas' Alphabet is the second studio album by English band Sundara Karma. It was released on 1 March 2019 under RCA Records. Stylistically, the album has been described as a dramatic departure from their previous album, Youth Is Only Ever Fun in Retrospect. The album was first announced on 9 October 2018 in correlation with the release of their lead off single, Illusions.

The album has been described as having an eclectic range of influences from art rockindie pop and elements of new rave throughout the record, marking a major departure from the band's pop rock and indie rock-oriented sound. Critically, the album has been nearly universally acclaimed, with critics praising the album's range of influences, relevance, ambition and confidence.

Commercially, the album reached the Top 30 in the Official Charts, although it did not chart as well as their debut album. The album spawned five singles ahead of the release, including Illusions, One Last Night on This Earth and Higher States. It was produced by Stuart Price and Everything Everything member, Alex Robertshaw.

Ulfilas' Alphabet was recording during Summer 2018 at RAK Studios in West London, where the band recruited Alex Robertshaw from Everything Everything for producing the album. In describing the choice to recruit Robertshaw for producing, frontman Oscar Pollock said that Robertshaw "brought his Eurorack, which is full of different modular synthesisers and I think that bought a whole different element to it. We put everything from drums and guitars through it so that was a new thing we didn’t have on the first record".
