 This provided a catalyst for "a second batch of songs", as Amos puts it, which would end up fleshing out the rest of the album.While Amos's four previous albums were highly influenced by conceptual frameworks and overarching narratives, "Abnormally Attracted to Sin" marks a return to a more personal album.The songs serve as loosely veiled confessions, stark and, at times, exuberant disclosures through which Amos explores her own experiences, and how she has both defined and been defined by them throughout her life and career.
