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 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 74.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.7.

4.25 out of 5.
This Dinosaur Jr album as a fairly more alternative feel to it. The band is know for their almost whiny vocals and dirty guitar riffs but this record has less of this and sweeter of overall tones, or at least in Dinosaur Jr standards.
Love is..., Left / right, lost all day and be a part are all great exemples of this.
Die hard fans may not welcome such a direction but i personnaly think it makes for one of their stand out modern albums.
Plus, big grungy songs like Walk for miles are still there to remind you this is a legendary-forever-underground-incredible-sounding rock band.
(Edited)
VictorValeStraight forward alt rock record with killer guitar solos.
I really like every track off this album. Good stuff.

Would be better if his voice didn't age so terribly.
