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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.6/100, a mean average of 71.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.2.

Very good alternative rock album. Best 10 songs average is 92,3/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. Best and full scoring song is "Just my imagination". Followed by "Animal instinct" and "Promises" both 95/100 and next "You and me", "Saving grace" and "Fee fi fo" all 90/100. All other songs good 80-85/100, except "Copycat" and "Delilah" average 75/100 only.

This was the last Cranberries album I bought. I kind of lost interest in them at this point. It's not awful or anything but there's not really anything new or interesting here. It's much easier and more rewarding to just listen to Everybody Else Is Doing It for the 600th time.
I don't agree. This is by far the greatest album from this band. Animal Instinct, Promises, Just My Imagination and You & Me are their greatest songs. Loud and Clear is their best Non-single track
I love Animal Instinct, Promises, Just My Imagination and Sorry Son, in which Dolores sings like Grace Slick, you can hear they were influenced here by psyhedelia.
Some terrible songs but otherwise among their best songs. Not as complete as an album as their first two efferts though.
