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 71.0/100, a mean average of 70.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.0.

Their weakest release for sure, but I'm definitely not inclined to call it bad.

Surprised this gets ranked so low consistently for them. Sure it's not their best but Bull in the heather winners blues and bone are all really good

After delivering 3 masterpieces in a row, Sonic Youth's inspiration fell drastically short on that one... There really isn't anything good about that complete bore of an album.

Definitely Sonic Youth's worst album. They just repeated the same formula they used on Dirty, but this time, they made it noisy and boring. There isn't much to say about most of the songs, they're mostly just forgettable and straight up boring.

However there are a few gems in here: Bull In the Heather, Androgynous Mind, Sweet Shine (best track)

But then there are the sucky forgettable and boring tracks: Bone, Quest For the Cup, Tokyo Eye, Doctor's Orders

I mean don't get me wrong I don't hate this album, but it's Sonic Youth's worst, and their least relevant.
