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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.4/100, a mean average of 77.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.8.

i dont get how anyone can think this is "samey" almost every song on the backhalf experiments the fuck out
Fairly unlistenable. Bad version of a band trying to be Nirvana. And everything sounds the EXACT same. No joke. Listen to maybe the first 3 songs, and you've already heard the rest. The only credit I'm giving this, is that the guitar is really good on most of the songs. That's about it though. (Edited)
One of the best albums of the 2000s no discussion
That voice ... so annoying
Shame because the music has some real quality
Shouting just isn't my thing (Edited)
I am delighted to see this often-overlooked album in the chart. I would say it was probably the best alboum of 2000, but I'm not complaining
