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 70.3/100, a mean average of 69.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.1.

It would have been a hard ask to match the caliber of their three previous studio albums to this. They don't quite manage but still do a great job with this. It still has that definitive Muse sound and style. Good album.

Entre o genial e o cafona! Que banda complicada!!
First couple if tracks are Muse at their best. The 3 part symphony is Muse at their overblown self indulgent worst. In between is ok. Muses career summed up in one album
My favourite Muse album. Not a fan of Uprising, which was the first single off the album. Nor the final 3 tracks in truth. But everything in between is gold. A superb album, would have this much higher if it was only tracks 3-10.
They continue at the same direction, at which they had already hinted with their previous album. In hindsight, it is safe to say this wasn't their best decision.
A masterpiece!

Megalomanic. Really ridiculous at times. The catchiest moments are the best moments on this album.
The beginning of the decline for Muse. No, it's not a bad album, but it sets the sound for the next records that are not good IMO.
Standouts: Uprising, Resistance
Really good album, though not as good as their previous 3.
Favorites: Resistance, United States of Eurasia, Guiding Light, Unnatural Selection.
The 3 part symphony is by far the best thing about this.
