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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 91.2/100, a mean average of 89.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 91.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.1.

So far my favourite Beatles album. Kinda quintessential if you think about it. (Edited)

I think for me my favourite album of their's. Great start and unbelievable end and it's not bad then hats inbetween (Edited)
This has always been my favourite Beatles album nd it's clear to me that this is a huge leap forward from Rubber Soul (an album I also like) and that Sgt. Peppers would not have happened without this album. I find Sgt. Peppers rather a hard listen TBH.
I can see why this is considered The Beatles' most experimental album. The songwriting is more innovative and the use of a diverse array of instruments was ground breaking at the time. I'm also pretty sure that they never played a live show after the release of Revolver so it marks the shift from a live group to a studio-focused one and the freedom in what they could recording that gave them. Love the use of Indian music and psychedelic music.
I cannot deny that there are some iconic tracks like "Eleanor Rigby" and "Tomorrow Never Knows," and "Taxman" is a banging opener. I could be wrong but was this also the first time that the Beatles had extensively used an orchestra when the did on "Eleanor Rigby".
All in all it's a very good album. (Edited)

It's not just a great album, it's an album that changed the way artists thought about making music. (Edited)

It is a no wonder that so many people consider this the best Beatle album. This album takes off where Rubber Soul ended and even somewhat further. The increased level of writing continues and will carry forward into future songs and albums.
With the exception of Yellow Submarine, I believe every track is excellent. (Edited)
