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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.4/100, a mean average of 74.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.0.

É sempre uma alegria ouvir esse álbum!
"Set you Free" is such a banger
Deserves a much higher rating. Hendrix and the Allmans had a love child.
Great album, a very swampy, beautiful, and soulful, blues album. Dan and Pat mesh in a way that not many bands can. With "low-fi" production quality adding another layer of emotion. a true modern masterpiece of an album, if you enjoy blues, listen to this album, if you like the black keys clicking on all cylinders, listen to this album.
Very good sophomore effort by Dan and Pat. This is surely better than The Big Come Up (although that one was really one), the tracks are more heavier, bluesy (if such a word exists), and infectious. This, Brothers, and Rubber Factory are my favorite Black Keys albums

Better than their first album, it might be my favorite Black Keys albums. Heavily steeped in the blues.

Better than their first album, Thickfreakness is a little heavier, and more songs stand out. Set You Free is one of the best Keys songs ever.
