Their next album, entitled Blind , was finally released in October 1992. The album experienced commercial success similar to their debut when it peaked at number 103 on the Billboard 200, and sold nearly half a million copies. Critical reception was also positive, but some critics thought the album lacked the quality songwriting of its predecessor. Despite Blind’s initial appeal with audiences, it drifted off the charts by the summer of 1993. The Sundays toured Britain in the winter of 1992. The shows were “rapturously received by fans starved of fresh product or gigs.” An American tour was greeted with sold-out shows. Gavurin explained that they weren’t necessarily attempting to promote the new album: “A lot of people didn’t see us the first time we played over here, and they want to hear earlier material. So we’re playing half and half.” In the end the tour was cut short in light of exhaustion and homesickness.
