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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.4/100, a mean average of 77.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.7.

Postcard album from britpop era. Remember well Animal Nitrate, the Drowners and Metal Mickey pumping from the loudspeakers from now long extinct indi/alternative clubs down here in Melb. City of 4 million virtually bereft of anything but top 40 and rnb thesedays.

Showing more imagination and daring than most could in a lifetime, Suede re-introduced drama, excitement, and sex to the moribund and stale early 90s.
Arguably the album that kicked off the brit pop era. Suede, is a great brooding rock'n'roll album heavily influenced by Bowie, The Smiths, and T.Rex. Brett Anderson and Bernard Butler are an excellent pairing and they create some great music here. So young, sleeping pills, and, animal lover, are all excellent, but the best of the bunch is without doubt, animal nitrate, one of the great singles of the nineties. A great debut.

Very good britpop/alternative rock album. Best 10 songs average is 90,5/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. Best songs are "So young" and "Animal nitrate" both 95/100, followed by "She's not dead", "Sleeping pills" and "Breakdown" "all 90/100 and next "Pantomime horse", "Metal mickey" and "The next life" all 85/100.

Britpop's hidden gem. Darker, deeper and a lot more tasteful than many of its contemporaries, Suede's self titled debut plays far better than anyone could expect a first album to go.
Of more significant note, however, is that it goes to places its contemporaries could only dream of. The confidence with which Anderson's lyrics tittle along the line of sexual explicitness is fantastic, and it's refreshing to hear such confidence in the subject matters he delves into.
Its a record for the slightly downtrodden and dirty-minded who want an escape into a world with people like themselves. One for those after that echoy, metallic early 90s sound with enough confidence to tackle more carnal matters too.
