That's the whole review. Doesn't even matter what the record is.
Maybe the album is just a means to an end, and the purpose of his writing is a matter of self-reflection. I read that and I felt like he was talking about himself. Maybe he has self-esteem issues and he struggles to have a better self-image of himself.
