Line-up
Mattias Ohlsson - Everything

Description/Reviews:
But wherein lies the difference from the Octavarium albums? Why the sudden name change? The answer to that ... lies in the fact that Illuminations' offerings are forcefully different and furiously heavier, pulling it unmistakably out of the Octavarium realm. Not entirely though, for there are still many tantalising similarities detectable.
... And where Ohlsson's previous efforts shuddered and rocked my world, this one is capable of arousing an actual earthquake, for Ohlsson most definitely has upped his game on the heavy department. Previously images of Magellan, Porcupine Tree, Dream Theater and Pink Floyd stepped into the spotlight. Those names are now greatly overshadowed by bright flashes of Haken, Tesseract and Devin Townshend.
