Martyn would like to dedicate this album to Kathleen Ware and her replacement on this earth Elena Landsley Kathleen Ware.

The perfect description of this album by Music Master Online:

Heaven 17 are back with a new album after an eight-year sabbatical. Musically, BIGGER THAN AMERICA, marks a return to the electronic roots that initially made them an influential group. Lyrically it will raise as many questions as their radical albums, Penthouse And Pavement and the Luxury Gap. Sounding much as they did many years ago, this is sharp, social comment you can dance to.
