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 has a Bayesian average rating of 63.7/100, a mean average of 63.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.6.

Very solid again. Don't understand the low rating on here. Stop Crying Your Heart Out is one of their best songs. Hindu Times, All in the mind and Little By Little also stand out

Quite an under rated album this. I prefer it over most other Oasis and am surprised it's not ranked higher among there albums. Very consistent quality right through. Couple of the tracks have a familiar feel to them but you get that sometimes.

From track 4 to track 9 you get a great listen, that EP would be 9/10 for me. But the first 3 tracks and the last 2 are definitely not my cup of tea.

This album is far from a car crash and actually goes ok in parts , 'Stop Crying Your Heart Out ' is completely sappy but in a really good way . Don't believe the terrible reviews for Heathen Chemistry , this one isnt as bad as its made out .

Yawn. Just more of the same derivative crap with, little by little, the only really good track. The rest is just Oasis by numbers. Dull and boring.

Half-hearted return to their rock n roll routes, no better than 'SOTSOG'

Very good alternative rock/britpop album. Best 10 songs average is 91,3/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. Better than expected at first, continuously strong and many hits. Yes, for the moment it's my second best album of Oasis after "(What's the story) morning glory?". Best song is "Little by little" - full scoring. Followed by "Stop crying your heart out" 95/100 and next "The hindu times", "Songbird" and "She is love" 90/100.
