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 70.8/100, a mean average of 69.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.9.

12 Memories is probably the darkest and least commercial album Travis have released . Even the singles tend to seek new grounds for the band, and they are not as immediately catchy as the big hits from the previous two albums. The first single "Re-Offender" in glipses almost sound like a Radiohead song,.
Generally there seem to a great inspiration from a band like Blur. Not least on great tracks like "Somewhere Else" and "Mid-Life Krysis" - my two favourite tracks on the album along with the opener "Quicksand" - I love the "hey-hey" harmony vocals on the chorus.
The three singles "Re-Offender", "Beautiful Occupation" and "Love Will Come Through" ( classic Travis sound ) obviously are great songs, too.
Instrumentally the album is the most varied of all Travis' albums, and it's an album to return to again and again. None of the songs seem unnecessary, and lyrically the band has more at heart than usually.
I would not be surprised if this album eventually is going to be rated as the group's most successful.

I really like Travis - and like this album without it quite having the same catchy delivery of previous albums or others to follow. It is a safe album - it won't push you in any way. But it is enjoyable but if you aren't a Travis fan I doubt you will be returning to this album too often.
Consistently mellow and soft, with some focus on dark issues at the time. Underrated Travis album
Quicksand, Peace The F**k Out and Love Will come Through. Surprisingly there is much more melancholy here than their two previous albums.
