Rating metrics: Help 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 has a Bayesian average rating of 67.7/100, a mean average of 67.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 21.7.

A collective score of 68/100 (at the time of this comment being posted) feels really dismissive. This is a really good record, some of their best work.

The biggest problem with this album is it's just too long. If they cut out the filler, there would be a really fantastic album here.

Paramore changed direction and established a new sound in a great way. "Last Hope" tops Misery Business for my favourite Paramore song. This album is a huge change, but Paramore swings to a new sound that is much more accessible and fun. They leave the pop-punk pack and give themselves a unique identity outside of Hayley Williams.

An inspired change in direction from the rest of their catalogue, this has so much more depth and may just be one of the most underrated albums ever made

I bet gwen stefani and the rest of no doubt wish their album rocked as well as paramore does on this album. After gwen's last solo album, she was lucky to reunite no doubt. Their reunion helped spark some fun pop/rock numbers, but that album was widely scattershot with its results. This self-titled paramore release is more consistent in bringing rocking, driving hooks. Although the lyrics seem a bit directed toward the 18-25 crowd ("ain't it fun living in the real world" for example) and sometimes a bit convoluted (as in "part ii"), it doesn't come off too sophmoristic or muddled in approach, which is good because they really know how to write the catchy hook. Yes, sometimes they can come on too saccharine-sweet'n'upbeat musically, but the lyrics really are not ("someday you're going to be the only one you got" as an example from standout "anklebiters"), though they might sound that way.
