I actually think Absolution shows huge improvement in Bellamy's growth as a lyricist. If you listen to / read the lyrics to the first two albums - the lyrics are just crap. I mean like Oasis crap whereby he just sings stuff cos it rhymes, it's like on this album he's found something that moves him (war / impending apocalypse) and he has something to write about... well.
Good review. Thoughts of a Dying Atheist is my favourite song on the album too, good choice for penultimate track. I'd probably give the album 4/5, just because I have to be EXTREEEMELY impressed to give anything 5/5.
