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 75.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

Mixed view on this. I like the expansion of the style within some tracks. However it doesn't always pay off. I found this an album of two halves. First half's a cracker but then it dips noticeably in the back half. Overall it's alright but most of their other albums are far better.

I'm blown away by this album. It's a departure from formula, and the songs are great. I love it.

More accent on the piano on this one. Solid album . Just as good as Elephant.

A very disappointing listen for me, following two absolutely brilliant albums by The White Stripes. There was nothing in the album that felt remotely close to the level of songwriting on White Blood Cells or Elephant, besides The Denial Twist.

Some great tracks, but mostly meh. Saved by the interesting production and general flow of the tracks.

Questo disco mi piace più adesso di dieci anni fa, come se il tempo avesse depositato le scorie dell'incertezza dovute all'apparente impossibilità per i White Stripes di dare un seguito ad "Elephant"...

Doesn't excite me as much as the earlier albums. One of the few albums whose second half I prefer to the first.

A pretty bold departure from the group's previous albums, and some of the most adventurous and unique songs the group has done. One of my favorites by them.

Consistently quite good! Not as good as the preceeding two albums, better than average.
