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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.6/100, a mean average of 77.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.8.

Not for me. Lyrics and vocals left me thinking: "What the hell am I listening to?" The music is good, reminds me of the post-hardcore I used to listen to back in the day, but I really can't stand that singing voice... for me, it would have been better to just use screamo the whole time... over this ear-splitting mess

Repeater might be the first post-hardcore masterpiece, but this one surpasses it. Not all songs are high-lights, but the ones that are perfect. The band sounds thight while the vocalist is impressive in his ability of sounding agressive, fast, clear but also catchy and melodic.

This is a very frantic and fun album to listen too. The start is amazing and has a run of like 5 songs which are all fantastic and so enjoyable. It does dip in quality at the end of the record making it not an incredibly consistent listen. The standard of guitar work is upheld throughout and is my favourite part about the record. The vocals however are not very unique and can be irritating at times. Overall, worth a listen but it is let down by certain factors.

Amazing. I can't recomend this album enough. I probably like In/Casino/Out more, but this one is still practically perfect. This is probably my favorite album of the 00's.

That voice ... so annoying
Shame because the music has some real quality
Shouting just isn't my thing
