In contrast to the other reviews posted here, I wasn't bowled over by Illumina. After the outstanding pop-classic that was Alisha Rules The World, the girls seemed poised for chart domination as well as critical success, and perhaps Illumina suffered from this pressure. The only single to chart well, The Incidentals, is certainly one of the better tracks on the album, and would have seemed more at home on their first. The feel of the album is much moodier and thicker than Alisha Rules The World, and the impression is that they are trying to move away from the infectious brightness that had become their trademark. This is a mistake, as they do not seem entirely comfortable in their new slightly drum-and-bass tinged sound. The absence of Dave Stewart's production is striking, as the majority of Illumina seems muddy and undistinguished. Even after several plays, most of the tracks blur into each other (with the exception of Resistor, Barbarella and the aforementioned The Incidentals).

I have awarded this album 3 stars, although perhaps this is slightly generous and affected by my huge affection for their other albums. It's not that Illumina is bad - it is perfectly pleasant. It is more that it is hugely disappionting, and belies a very genuine talent on the part of the Poole sisters for creating truly great pop.

I love this! Of the 3 albums the girls have produced, its most certainly the best.

Its not as angry teenageer as 'Alisha rules the world' and not as mellow and grown up as 'The house that we built'. Its more like youre in youre early 20s, with some experience of how love is, awear of its pitfalls and disapointments at times, but still hopeful and wanting to find the one...if that makes any sense!?

Its got a very relaxing quality to it, without being a chill out record. The best songs are undoubtably 'The incidentals,(the line..'breathing on the back of my neck and making me feel weak inside' just sums up a moment Im sure we've all felt with someone sometime) 'Resistor', 'Air and angels', 'Are you jelous?' and 'Dive in', although theres not one weak moment or song Id want 2 skip past.

This is an incredable album and a fantastic way to get from the amazing 'Alisha rules the world' to the sublime 'The house that we built'...buy it!!!!

This album really has very little relation to Alisha's Attic's previous offering - I mean, just compare the cover photographs - but what they are doing on this album they do very well. Less kooky, certainly, but still with an originality that sets this album apart from the background-listening category. No track as good as 'I Am, I Feel,' but The Incidentals is brilliant, and there are none of the excessively-kooky tracks that irked me somewhat on their debut (cf. Golden Rule, Personality Lines...)

They can still give a tune, can still sing, can still write lyrics - tick in every box, really.
