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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.7/100, a mean average of 74.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.4.

Such a complex and interesting piece of work from Woods. I particularly enjoy his lyricism and the detailed palette of samples used in the production.
First time I listened to Billy Woods, it was great. Loved NHF, heavy water and remorseless

A mostly quieter release from Billy Woods, much less chaotic. Still a very enjoyable listen, and Heavy Water slaps.

* Favorite tracks: Asylum, No Hard Feelings, Wharves, Sauvage, Christine, Heavy Water, Versailles, Remorseless, Smith + Cross
* Least favorite tracks: Protoevangelium
* Billy’s verses are unsuspectingly layered and poetic
* The production matches Billy’s tone perfectly on every song: grand when he’s being braggadocious, stripped back when he’s haunted, beautiful when he’s vulnerable, etc. Preservation went off, so many different sounds on here
* The features all show up, my favorites were Boldy, El-P, Breeze Brewin, and Despot
* The song transitions are so smooth
* Overall a fantastic underground hip-hop album that stays captivating throughout its whole length
85-90/100
