Big Country: Peace in our Time (1988)


I suppose the best news with this album is that the band lessened the reliance on its trademark bagpipe guitar. I think they should have moved in that direction sooner. But, paradoxically, this move  might have also made the band less interesting. Combined with the new production, the album comes across as bombastic, especially the lead off track, King of Emotion.
