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 63.2/100, a mean average of 62.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 62.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 21.6.

People hate on it way too mch
Agree that the album is stronger up to Look After You but the strong tracks are VERY good
It starts off great and then declines a lot, the last tracks are barely even passable. But the first ones are great, How to Save a Life is fantastic, and songs like She Is, Over My Head, Heaven Forbid, Fall Away, are all worth a listen

People give it too much of a hard time because it was a very pop album at the time. I gave it a chance and was satisfied with most tracks.
