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 is rated in the top 10% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.8/100, a mean average of 73.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.1.

There was this girl I knew once who could balance a sequence of 5 coins on her erect nipples. I wonder whatever happened to her.

I've found a newfound love and appreciation for this recently. Thought it was good back when it came out but something's recently clicked with me on this. Perfect name for the band and album as it really is just Sublime. Complete original sound. New take on Ska but with added heavier groove overtones. Definitely much stronger in the front half but still a fucking great album overall.

The people on this website are frustrating... I don't care. 100 points to leverage the majority's terrible opinion here. Music snobs.

Santeria, What I Got, Doin' Time are great, the rest is violently mediocre.

This album has some great tracks on it but is really let down by the more bland filler tracks. If you cut the album down a little it would be a fantastic record but the elongated run time and the several tracks which made me zone out makes it hard to give this record a high ranking. While there are a lot of positives like it being extremely chill and also a really unique album makes me be able to see why people would love this album. I also found the beats to be very catchy and the instrumentation that accompany them were really good as well. Overall, an album with a lot of potential but I don't think it is fully realised on this record.

This album is so underrated, no other bands really have a sound like they do that are good. Slightly stoopid is the closest thing.

Fun album, some great songs on here but i feel like the songs that don't hold up make it drag on a little. Going to have to listen again as it might be a grower.
