Union Carbide Productions
Union Carbide Productions was a Swedish rock band formed by Ebbot Lundberg (vocals), Patrik Caganis, Björn Olsson, Per Helm and Henrik Rylander in 1986.

After the success of The Soundtrack of Our Lives, a compilation CD was released in 2004. History In 1981 Ebbot Lundberg met Patrik Caganis at a U.K. Subs gig.

During the years that followed, "Sure Tråkings Trio" was disbanded and Patrik Caganis spent a year as an exchange student in Minneapolis, USA. Going to gigs with bands like Hüs ...
