Wonderland is either a 4-track EP or a mini album, depending on who you ask. It commences with the lively Wonderland, which I suppose is emblematic of the band's sound, for better or worse. Depending on who you ask, this band is similar to The Alarm, or maybe The Icicle Works, or even Howard Jones and Simple Minds, though I can't help but feeling that the comparison to the latter band is influenced by geography more than sound. I think it does a huge disservice to Simple Minds to have to live with that comparison. Big Country is both lyrically and musically unsophisticated as compared with Simple Minds.
