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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.6/100, a mean average of 76.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.2.

The WallFlowers popularity had severely dwindled by the time of this release so Rebel, Sweetheart doesn't get credit it deserves.
Four great songs include The Beautiful Side of Somewhere and the melodic We're Already There
The 2 true standout tracks are towards the end.
God Says Nothing Back is the signature song on the record for its writing and musicianship
From the Bottom of my Heart is also excellent
The rest of the album is consistently good, I wish people would give it a chance.
After nobody bit into this release, Wallflowers broke up for a while.
