Land was released in 1983 on Jive Records. It's The Comsat Angels' fourth album. The album was reissued on CD with 5 B-sides as bonus tracks in 2001 for Jive's Connoisseur Collection. The version of Independence Day on this album is a different one than that on their debut album, Waiting for a Miracle. Will You Stay Tonight and Independence Day received a reasonable amount of airplay and charted in the United Kingdom at #81 and #71 respectively. Island Heart was also released as a single.
