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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.0/100, a mean average of 75.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.3.

Great album. Their best one, so far.
Jack has always made nice music for workout sessions.
I have so many amazing memories of this album. I have been a huge Jack White fan from the time I was a little kid, and this is my favorite project he has ever released. You see, Brendan Benson is a genius as well, and he and Jack really bring out the best in each other. Every song is absolutely killer here. Can't wait for their next album!
This is one of the greatest albums ever made. It was the first album I fell in love with start to finish, and I have a lot of great childhood memories listening to it. I wish so much that this band would make one more album. I like Brendan and Jack's solo work but together they balance to form perfection.
Every song is solid and unique here. One of my all time favorite albums. I used to listen to it every day when I was in middle school. Good times! Jack White and Brendan Benson harmonize so well. I wish this band would make another album
