It went on to be certified platinum in the UK and Canada. It contains the song "In a Big Country" which is their only U.S. Top 40 hit single. Stuart Adamson and fellow guitarist Bruce Watson used the MXR Pitch Transposer 129 effect pedal to create a guitar sound reminiscent of bagpipes
"Wonderland" is an EP released in 1984, while in the middle of a lengthy worldwide tour.

It was the last single by the band to make the US charts.
Peace in Our Time is their fourth studio album, released in 1988. the album displays "a more gentle and subtle style and a crisper, more delicate sound.
