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 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.6/100, a mean average of 74.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.3.

A good debut. An enjoyable and inoffensive pop-rock album. There are no duds on the album (ignoring the pointless 1 minute track). You can definitely hear the U2 influence with the vocals and at times the guitar riffs, but I think this album stands out on its own without needing the U2 comparison. Much more poppy than his dad's band. My highlights are My Honest Face, the title track, Slide Out the Window and Night on the Floor.
Great debut, the resemblance with early U2 is definitely there.
