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 25% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.4/100, a mean average of 72.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.0.

That`s a good album with nice songs.
It has just one problem: neil Young did lot`s of good albums and i listen to this one very rarely.
A great album made with one of the best backing bands that Neil has ever worked with.
It's not bad, although a little samey. You really want Pearl Jam to explode but they just kind of competently chug along. It's okay, but nothing really stands out. Not bad. (Edited)

This album was fun to listen to. Strong melodies and music, and while not much besides "I'm the Ocean" is remarkable, I still found it to be a great experience. (Edited)
It's the grungy element that I love. Crazy Horse are great but Pearl Jam really take it to another place on this album.
