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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.7/100, a mean average of 76.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.3.

Another excellent and smart release from one of the pre-eminent bands in the world today. This ones a concept album of sorts that loosely tells the tale of a night out on the town

Didn't know what to expect having been underwhelmed seeing them live supporting the Foos and not really getting all the hype that surrounds them. Having given it a listen, it's a really good album. Great mix of pop, rock and punk and there's some terrific layering in the production. Good record.

(Cool alt/indie rock album. Ellie on the vocals is the star, but the band is solid throughout.)

I say this a lot but it’s particularly true here: I don’t have much to say about this. It’s a very solid and at times gorgeous indie rock album. It bounces so often from one sound to another, I can’t pin down what Wolf Alice’s sound or distinctive quality is based off this mostly very good batch of songs.

The heavy rocking tracks few but they sound cool as hell. The more somber and introspective tracks also work really well. This comes down I think to the vocalist, Ellie Rowsell. She totally kicks ass on most of these tracks (not a fan of the corny kinda sorta rapping on “Smile” but the heavy track saves that song) and I just really love her style.

The album is a solid one start to finish. I can’t say I am blown away by it, but I enjoy the hell out of it. Very memorable melodies and some really dope tracks litter this one. Glad I listened that is for sure.

The production on this thing is great, no question. The performances are excellent, as well. But as I listened to this over and over, I realized that the songwriting here is just not for me. These songs kind of bleed together, with none being bad, but there aren't any real highlights, either.

Fantastic sophomore album by Wolf Alice. Strong narrative album that follows the arc of Ellie Roswell's relationship and breakup. Beautiful record that slaps hard.
