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 14.6.

Quite good and enjoyable album, sounds like fusion of early 90s alt rock and 70s glam rock and has some creative lyrics.

I like the movement that follows this a whole lot more than this album, but there's still a very good record here.
Decent, but not as spectacular as I expected it to be. Animal Nitrate is absolutely phenomenal, I also liked She's Not Dead, Drowners and Pantomime Horse. A few too many weak tracks for this to be a top-tier album though for me. Some of the guitar riffs are stunning.

Great tracks: Pantomime Horse, Animal Nitrate, So Young
In 93 it sounded like something from another planet. I think it still does. The atmosphere and effects of the whole thing are just beautifully infectious. Often it's the slower moments that stick out for me, like 'Pantomime Horse' and 'The Next Life', but the combination of Butler and Anderson is irresistible here.

Not a big fan of Suede but this is a great album. Definitely their best album

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.

Britpop is not my favorite, but this is plenty competent.

I love this album! . Sex drugs and swagger all in equal measure. There's 9 cracking songs here with Pantomime Horse and Animal Lover being let downs. Easily top 20 all time , an absolute classic
