Features Song Lyrics for The Comsat Angels's 7 Day Weekend album. Album: 7 Day Weekend.

Land is the Comsat Angels' fourth album, released in September 1983 on Jive Records. The album was reissued on CD in 2001 with five B-sides as bonus tracks for Jive's "Connoisseur Collection". The song "Independence Day," originally from their debut album, Waiting for a Miracle, was rerecorded for Land. Will You Stay Tonight" and "Independence Day" received a reasonable amount of airplay and charted in the UK at No. 81 and No. 71, respectively. Island Heart" was also released as a single.

The Comsat Angels were an English post-punk band from Sheffield England, initially active from 1978 to 1995. Their music has been described as "abstract pop songs with sparse instrumentation, many of which were bleak and filled with some form of heartache". The Comsat Angels toured heavily in the UK and in western Europe, especially in the Netherlands.

Day One. This song is by The Comsat Angels and appears on the album 7 Day Weekend (1985). Staggering out as the day is just breakingHead spinning 'round from a night to forgetI think we said everything that we should regret. What started so well ended up in confusionMaybe we'd rather be right than correctThis one could be the last, deadliest outcome yet. Hold back the clock, don't turn the pageCross out the day and the datesWhatever it is now, let's give it a different name.

The Comsat Angels willingly became part of the '80s hit-making machine for 7 Day Weekend and lived to regret it. Aside from the exposure gained by the use of "I'm Falling" in the movie Real Genius, the piles of money dumped into numerous recording sessions and multi-format singles did little to improve the band's profile. With the sound overhaul also came the inevitable image update. Otherwise, 7 Day is washy by any band's standard. The piecemeal manner in which the album was recorded surprisingly doesn't lend a disjointed feeling, but a few of the choices for producers are undeniably baffling, including funk/R&B master James Mtume and hard rock staple Chris Tsangarides, who was fresh from a Y&T session. Time hasn't been good to the record, but Connoisseur's 2001 reissue sounds excellent.

Steve Fellows’ sporadic guitar-playing had something of Pere Ubu’s Tom Herman about, it, Mik Glaisher and Kevin Bacon's beat interpretations were often oddly elliptical, and Andy Peake restricted himself to a predominantly textural role, providing the subtlest of emotional hints with a variety of sombre organ tones and tempered white-noise. But it wasn’t so much the elements as the way they combined which forced you to take note; one moment cavernous sounds that had you looking deep into the abyss then.
