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 71.7/100, a mean average of 70.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 21.4.

If this band died young they would've been worshipped. In the vein of The Rolling Stones, and Morissey, they continue on, making corporate, egotistical asses of themselves. Especially Corey Taylor, the guy is several miles up his own ass.
I'm no expert on nu-metal. I tend to gravitate towards more prog oriented stuff. That disclaimer out of the way, this band's first two records are worth listening to. The debut especially is wonderfully edgy and chaotic.
Is it well-written? Of course not. It's not supposed to be. The whole point is to thrash the fuck out without thinking about it. And it does just that. Very well. (Edited)

Safe to say that though I like metal and hard rock like Megadeth, Metallica, Iron Maiden, and other well known and commercial artists... I'm not a Slipnot fan. I gave this album a listen and tried to go in with an open mind but the anger and growling vocals are not my personal cup of tea. The instrumentals themselves were amazing though. Really complex and catchy. (Edited)

I can´t like a band, that tries its hardest to have a indeciferable sound, even if they excel at it to a extent. This album pretty much shows what they can do overall, instrumentally they have a ton of potential. Too much filler tho, second half below average. (Edited)

If the point is to make you feel as uncomfortable as possible, it works. Overall, 50/100. (Edited)
