Thanks dude. I personally think the point of the album is to be lyrically all over the place, but like you said to each his own.

All right, here's some feedback. I'm gonna go hard, so be warned:
For starters, you've gotten a hell of a lot better since that Minutes To Midnight review (lol), but even since some of your other, more recent reviews you've improved some too. I think your opening paragraph, while of course not staff-quality (yet ;) ), is still solid and I laud your ambitious idea. I do think some of the sentences - specifically, the first two - are really solid.
That said, there are a lot of clunky phrases and ideas in your review. I'll pull some of them out:
You begin to understand their torments a lot more and In Absentia actually manages to make you feel guilty for loving some of the material on it.
The "actually manages to make you feel guilty" part especially feels off, but the entire sentence is kind of circular.
In Absentia has recurring themes that deal with the thoughts of serial killers, rapists, and even criticisms of society.
You've spent the first paragraph describing this, you don't need to say it again.
The amount of diversity on the album is absolutely staggering because it cannot be classified into one genre.
This means virtually nothing to me.
You see what I mean (I hope)? The ideas are really good (though there is an element of "formulaic" in your reviews that I think will be easier to work around when you get more experience), but the way you phrase things is often not great. Read some staff/contrib reviews to see how they phrase specific descriptions of the music, and you'll see what I mean - most of them don't stick to a formula (i.e. "The music sounds like x. The instrumentation sounds like y. The themes are z." and so on and so forth). I really hope you continue to write - you've shown a lot of promise so far, and it's really nice to see you improve so fast. You have a ways to go, but I really think you can do it. Good luck, and I hope to see you around some more!

@IbenizGEO1 That's what Brostep is known for haha
@Brostep Thanks a lot man. At least I'm showing some sort of improvement. I was reading my stuff and I did notice the formualic descriptions and stuff. And I will continue to write I love doing it. And I didn't know if that first paragraph would come off as weird, but for those who haven't listened to this, you really do delve into the mind of a serial killer literally in some songs.

I'm hoping one day all of a sudden the production will stop annoying me and then I'll be blessed with an incredible listen. I'm hoping.
