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 77.7/100, a mean average of 76.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.6.

Kind of incredible???

A lot slower than I expected since I only knew Song 2, but ok album overall.
Going by recent comments this change in style has split opinion - I'm on the positive side. It's still Blur but a bit darker and mature and less poppy. We need to let bands grow and develop - nothing worse than a middle-aged teenager!

This album is a disappointment. A hopeless mix of every genre and band possible, Jefferson, Velvet, Yardbirds, Blur and Cure. No, no good.
Beetlebum and Song 2 are excellent, but the rest of the album was really hard going for me.
Blur at their peak.
One of the most underrated albums of the 90s.
Blur the album demonstrates how Blur the band were one of the more consistent and innovative groups of the 90s.
Favorite Tracks:Beetlebum, Country Sad Ballad Man, Chinese Bombs
Overall: 8.9
Top Tracks: "On Your Own", "You're So Great", "Look Inside America"
