Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album has a Bayesian average rating of 68.8/100, a mean average of 67.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.5.

Decent album but nothing special. Chasing Cars is an okay song that I'm still surprised is so highly rated. My favourites are You're All I Have and Hands Open.

This is a reasonable album – but… one must get past the over-earnest singing and arrangements. A bit like latter day Elbow, everything comes off as a little forced and the record suffers because of it. Stronger at the start than the finish.
Rating: Pleasing
Best track: Chasing Cars
Great record with a lot of solid mid-2000's hits. I thought the closer was terrible tho.
Best song(s): "Chasing Cars" "Shut You Eyes" "Make This Go on Forever" "Open Your Eyes"
I really like this album - Make This Go On Forever and Set The Fire To The Third Bar are glorious.
Snow patrol at its best, a very easy listen
Favorite tracks
1) You're all i have
2) Chasing Cars
3) Hands Open/Set the fire to the third bar
I heard Chasing Cars on the radio a lot os a kid, and tbh every song sound just like that one to me, the only one with any identity to it is Shut Your Eyes.
Great album. Evokes a lot of emotion through and through. A real pleasure to listen to.
