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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 80.1/100, a mean average of 78.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.2.

To fully "get" this, it helps if you were there. Northern. A bloke. 15-early 20s. At the time of release. Lamenting the roses going AWOL, the Mondays going a bit wrong. Sick of grunge and ripped jeans and flannel shirts. Tale end of shoegaze. Verve never fulfilled the glory of the eps on the debut album. Blur coming out with something you can get behind, suede sound ok but but don't look as good as blur and they only look good as the rest look shit. Feb 94 oasis on the word, channel 4. Supersonic. I must have watched that hundreds of times in the days that followed. I've never looked forward to a single release as much as supersonic. For 6 months at least they were wonderful. The gig when Noel got chinned, I was there. Nothing lasts forever. But if you were there and you got it then you know. If not, you never will.
I prefer this album to Morning Glory. Is there anyone out there who agrees?
"TONIGHT IM A ROCK N ROLL STAAAAARRR"
An unbelieavble record. At a time when depresive grunge music was the big thing in the world, here comes a band who had nothing and wanted it all.
"Feeling supersonic give me gin and tonic" "All I need are cigaretes and alcohol"
"you an I are gonna live forever"
Everything about this album is pure rock n roll. Full of attitude and arrogance, loud, proud, young. Great melodies. Slide Away is arguably the best Oasis song.
Ignore my previous comment. Upon relistening to this album several times in the past few days, I can quite confidently say that it's on par with, if not actually better than, Morning Glory. "Rock n' Roll Star" is an instant classic, as is "Live Forever", but the true gems on this one are the lesser known "Up in the Sky" (probably my favorite Oasis song) and "Supersonic". Admittedly, the second half isn't quite as strong, though tracks such as "Digsy's Dinner" and "Slide Away" make it well worth listening through. "Married with Children" isn't really one of the best on the album, but it sure is a catchy way to finish off this masterpiece.

Their arrogance turned me off when they were at their height of popularity, so I never listened to any of their albums. I must say it's a pleasure discovering this 27 years later. Thoroughly enjoying it start to finish. Driving 90's alternative with frequent nods to classic 70's rock. They certainly had something magical, it's a shame they couldn't sustain it longer.
