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 63.9/100, a mean average of 63.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.8.

So good! There is only one or two songs on here I MIGHT skip over, and even those aren't bad songs. Great album.

This album is still great to listen to, compared to most stuff coming out these days, all the songs are great, even if some of them have been played to death on the radio, it still does not make you want to throw the radio across the room because you are tired of hearing it, every time you hear a song like Long Day, Push, 3 AM or Real World, its more like they play this a lot on the radio, but its still better than the crap they play in between the good songs. But what makes this album great is that it is an album that sound great from start to finish and all the songs on the album are great songs, but might not be to everyone's liking, that's ok, but they show some of the influences of the band, and i don't mind that, it shows that they were influenced by more than being a fame whore and the money, unlike the boy bands that were coming out at the time, and also some other bands that come out at that time.

Very good pop rock/alternative rock album. Best 10 songs average is 88,3/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. Best songs are "Long day", "Push", "Back 2 good" and "Kody" all 90/100. Most other songs pretty good 85/100. Favourite! (Edited)

While I do agree that this album isn’t boundary pushing, groundbreaking, or shy about showing its post-grunge influences, I still think it’s an underrated and solid pop rock release in the latter half of the 90s. The first three tracks are raw, emotional, relatable, and catchy. “Back 2 Good” is just a little bit too long and repetitive, but I still enjoy the lyrics, instrumentation, and Rob Thomas’s vocal performance. A few mediocre and derivative tracks in the album’s second half that make it slightly suffer, and then we finish it all off with the moving acoustic closer “Hang”, which has become one of my absolute favorite MB20 songs. Give this a listen while driving in the car and keep an open mind. It will grow on you.

Matchbox 20 debut is straightforward mainstream blue-collar 90's pop/rock. It's singles made them extremely popular and the top half of the album is very good at what it does.
Tails off in the second half. The whole thing lacks originality and is a bit bland. Nothing here has a WOW factor.
Back 2 Good and Push are the highlights. 3 AM and Real World are simple catchy singles.
Damn is a personal favorite.
