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 has a Bayesian average rating of 73.1/100, a mean average of 72.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.6.

Album no 140 from 2019 for me to listen and still I could find such a masterpiece! Absolutely great!
As a Raconteurs fan, I love everything album they make. However, this one needed a few listening sessions. Best songs: Only Child, Bored And Razed, Shine The Light On Me, Sunday Driver

Sounds like a Black Keys tribute album except Jack White-tified
If you’re interested in Jack White and his schlock then check this album out otherwise give it a miss
This album is just what I wanted as a Raconteurs fanatic, after 11 years. It may not be as good as Consolers of the Lonely, but neither is almost every album ever recorded.

Remember the energy that made Consolers of the Lonely so damn fun? Yeah, most of that is gone.

Almost boring. Poor album.
Doesn't make my pulse quicken. Sort of average guitar music.
Consistently good album. I don't know if it has the highs that Consolers of the Lonely had, but a very good album after a 10 year hiatus.
Key tracks: Bored and Razed, Help Me Stranger, Don't Bother Me, Somedays and Sunday Driver

Pretty disappointing
