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 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.2/100, a mean average of 73.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

If this album sounds complete and assured as far as “debut” releases go, it’s actually unsurprising considering Tweedys career with Uncle Tupelo spanned 3 full albums and a couple of collections, and that “AM” hit the shelves within a month of U.T’s demise
Though I’m not sure about the Arctic Monkeys ‘AM’ tribute album released in 2013, it sounds nothing like this album
Actually a pretty fun record.

Clever lyrics and catchy tunes. Not sure why it isn't more popular.
Ignore my last comment. This is a good record. This proved Tweedy could pen an album nearly all on his own. If the extra twang is too much for you, examine the bare songs themselves. Usually they are simple but thoughtful. This debut captures a period where a new band is starting out, and though they are not sure of which direction they want to go in, they are definitely on the rise to greatness here. It's all just fun here.
Track Pick: Box Full of Letters
It's okay, but the songs are all so throwaway and unmemorable. Nothing stands out, it all just goes by without anything staying with you, without anything really happening. It doesn't help that all the songs sound the same. Not a patch on Being there.
