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 72.3/100, a mean average of 71.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.2.

Fantastic album start to finish.
..Underrated
It's amazing how every song hooks you from the first listen.
So much energy! This still gets me pumped up 13 years later.

A fuckin excellent rock band takes the stage. Masterful debut from start to finish. Ian D'Sa is such a great guitarist. Such great songs. Such a hard voice to like as much as I do.
A solid debut with great potential

I see the potential, but I just can't get past the cliched themes to their lyrics, and their horrid lead singer.

A great debut from a band who strongly believes that punk is still relevant and shows it here and throughout the follow up. Nothing to Lose breaks my heart. There are at least eight great songs here, all together.
Very solid debut where Billy Talent play their own unique take on hard rock. Well it isn't like Judas Priest or AC/DC but you can certianly see the influence. Deserve to be a huge band. Favorite songs are Standing In The Rain and Cut The Curtains.
Great band, great album
