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 9% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.2/100, a mean average of 74.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.8.

It's great to see them back, and many of the riffs are absolute zonkers- the singing, however, at times sees shoe-horned in from another record entirely. Not a masterpiece by any means, but I'll take new Sleep any day of the week.
I think that Sleep are a seriously great band but not quite loving this as much as say Holy Mountain. needs more time I guess.
Marathon of heavy guitar riffage and solos. A grand return for a band that has inspired many.
Excessively heavy metal. Just grinds you down. If Black Sabbath were depressed, they would have played like this.
I don’t know how anyone can hate this album - Sleep blend metal and chill together so effortlessly. I guess that’s why it’s called stoner rock ... amongst other things.
