Rating metrics: Help 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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.7/100, a mean average of 72.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.2.

Brilliant debut album. Like a Black Sabbath / Led Zeppelin lovechild with Jimi Hendrix as the uncle (Dimension sounds like a Hendrix song). A bit of a throwback to some of the best of the late 60s/ early 70s. White Unicorn is such a cool song, my favourite on the album. Obviously Woman and Joker & The Thief too. Some other gems in there too such as Pyramid and Dimension. Minds Eye for me is the weak track.

Es como una combinación de AC/DC, Led Zepelin y The White Stripes, simplemente genial... "Joker and the Thief" me hace querer tomar mi guitarra y "Woman" es tan explosiva que fácilmente entraría en mi top 50 de canciones favoritas de mi vida. Gran debut para Wolfmother.

One of the best debut albums for a band after 2000 in my opinion, every track is at least really good and differs from the others. Even a flute solo made the album.

Sadly still their best album, but the bar was set really high.

Ranks up there with the greatest debut albums ever. All the best elements of 60's, 70's and 80's rock melded into one. Every track a winner. Outstanding.

Good album, I love how they mix their obvious Black Sabbath/Led Zeppelin influence with The Doors or Jethro Tull-styles. Makes it a real fun album to listen to.

Great debut and throwback to 70s hard rock, wearing their Black Sabbath influences on their sleeves. I don't get where all the hate comes from.
