MichaelAJun 16, 2010This is a better album overall than Afterglow, which had two good songs -- the first and the last ones -- and a lot of meandering filler between. While I wish she'd let go of the meticulously ironed-out studio sound on some tracks, the songs here are the best she's done since Surfacing.

RobertL.Jun 16, 2010Been a fan for years and have been looking forward to this album for 7 years. I think it was worth the wait. Really enjoying it.

Sarah McLachlan's sound hasn't changed much in the seven years since Afterglow, but it does feel less sweeping than usual on Laws of Illusion.
-
All of McLachlan’s sonic trademarks are present and accounted for — dreamy keyboard washes, lilting rhythms, that angelic voice. They’re combined with her raw emotion in a beguiling manner that ranges from ethereal to rollicking.
-
Laws of Illusion sounds both effortless and effort-less, and McLachlan has proven that she's capable of more compelling work.
