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 is rated in the top 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.1/100, a mean average of 74.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.0.

When I was 13 there was nothing cooler than this-
The title track is my favorite song by them.

Almost on par with Dookie for mid-nineties pop-punk. Decent.
This is an album that hasn't aged very well for me and I find myself enjoying it less and less with every listen. I think this is mainly because of the fact that the more I listen to it the more I start to see how many filler tracks there are on here. There are only 4 or 5 great songs on here and the rest just don't match up in quality. I think they seem to lack that infectious feel and raw energy that they had on the better tracks and I find the slower tracks to pass me by without me paying any attention. They do have a fantastic energy as a group though and they are consistent in maintaining their style. Overall, this record feels rough around the edges and without those 4 or 5 tracks this record would really struggle in my opinion.

Bad Habit is the greatest road rage song ever written. Self Esteem is what got me into these guys. When I was 10 years old this was a fantastic album It was just as powerful (to me) as Smells Like Teen Spirit for this era in music. I think pop-punk is a REALLY loose term to use on this band. They are probably as pop punk as Pennywise or Social Distortion. No... they don't sound like Blink 182 or Sum 41.
Favorite tracks:
Bad Habit
Gotta Get Away
Come Out and Play
Self Esteem

Very good punk rock/grunge album. Best 10 songs average is 87,5/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. I was a very big fan of this album in the 90ies. Best song is "Self esteem" full scoring. Followed by "Come out and play" 90/100 and next "Gotta get away", "Killboy powerhead" and "What happened to you?" all 85/100.
