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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.0/100, a mean average of 76.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.5.

Much better than their debut, but still pretty mixed in terms of quality.

Nice album.
Fav. Track: for tomorrow
Least fav. Track: oily water
Such an improvement from Leisure, for sure, their influences are obvious, maybe a little too obvious but it's a fun ride from start to finish
Not quite the finished article, but an absolutely delightful work to listen to that showed the band's promise
Overall: 8.7
Top Tracks: "For Tomorrow", "Advert", "Chemical World"
Catchy and lyrically stellar, but the songs (especially Albarn's singing) get irritating after a while.

Definitely needs more listens, but at first I will say it is more irregular than their first effort, though still a really good album. 8/10.
Not a bad record, but it gets a bit weaker after the first half
Some solid tunes not as good as 13
