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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.8/100, a mean average of 72.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.5.

Some really good songs on here, but also the precise moment when the Chili Peppers lost the capacity to edit themselves. Not only does Stadium Arcadium fall into the classic double album trap of having way too many filler songs, but the songs themselves are often too long. Dani California starts great, but overstays its welcome, especially after years of radio saturation. Snow (Hey Oh) is another great song that would have been even better if they'd lopped off the last minute. And I've always hated the title track, which is really just a watered down Californication Part II, and goes on FOREVER.
Guitarra inspiradíssima, mas meio cansativo!
I can't imagine listening to a rhcp album for a full hour, let alone two. But still, these tracks are remarkably consistent. The sheer number of good tracks outweigh the handful of duds.
I just can't believe this band made a two hour long album. Wth.

I normally don't like double albums as they are hard to listen to in one go, but this one has so many brilliant tracks on it so the time flies by. My favourites are Desecration Smile, Hey, Animal Bar and Charlie (Dani California and Snow are also excellent but they were overplayed during my childhood so I don't have the same affection towards them). Not many weak tracks which is very impressive given just how many there are, but the two weakest I'd say are Strip My Mind and Death of A Martian.
Probably my favorite 'Chilli Peppers' record but not a particularly consistant one. Way too many average or weak tracks and it's just impossible to listen to in one sitting, zero reason for this being a 2 hour long album. That being said, I still really like this one and has ton of reply value, just wished they cut it in half and took the 14 best songs on the album and released the rest on some compilation.
Best song(s): "Dani California" "Snow" "She's Only 18" "Slow Cheetah" "Strip My Mind" "Desecration Smile"
This is an underrated Peppers album. I can see why because it came out late in their career, and it's a double album - people never really know how to digest those. But to me this is their best album. There are no filler tracks, I don't care what anyone says, and this is some of Frusciante's most experimental guitar work. I think they can ride the funk thing too much at times, but this is the exact opposite of that. Grade A songwriting, with one of the best modern drummers, bassists, and guitarists all in one band. Listen to this album!
As someone who isn't scared of a bit pop, I can enjoy this album just fine. Do I think this album changed something on the musical spectrum? No. I think this is already way better than you can expect from a band that has been going on for literal decades.
Really good album. Never feels dull even though it's over 2 hours long.
