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 16% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.2/100, a mean average of 73.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.5.

Solid Album and one I tend to overlook - Just Breathe probably the highlight to my ears - nothing outstanding but no duds either.
Sadly it and "Avocado" fall into the "generic version of themselves" category that most artists end up doing during their career. Riot Act and Binaural are leagues better.
Sempre agradáveis, mesmo com o som fugindo do habitual.
"Just Breathe" is a Pearl Jam Masterpiece! Rating (80.45)
So many very good songs , it's brilliant
A standout album definitely their best in dare I say 15 years at the time but don’t get me wrong plenty of nice tracks during that period. On this album I enjoy Tracks 1-8 and especially 1-3. The pace is a lot faster than a lot of their albums and that works until it slows down at the end.
Love this record. Every song is at least pretty good, with some I'd go as far as to say great. This is a record that you have low expectations going in, but you leave impressed. Definitely the dark horse of their catalog. I would almost take it over Vitalogy as my 3rd favorite Pearl Jam record, after the first and second one obviously. This record is probably more consistent, but Vitalogy's highs are a lot higher though. If you like Pearl Jam, you will love this record
This albums started pretty bland with some generic punkish rock tracks Pearl Jam likes but I was never a fan of. However, the second half is so much better with more melodic and interesting songs and some wonderful ballads. Possibly their best album of the decade.
They never write bad songs, and this album confirms it. Harder pieces alternate to soft ballads (the best pieces are two of them).
While there's some great stuff on here, it really is pretty bland dadrock... and I'm saying this as a fan of dad rock AND Pearl Jam. The last great thing they did, imo, was the live recordings in the year 2000. Their live show is amazing, but their studio work just hasn't really done it for me for a long time. Eddie Vedder's solo work has been more interesting. The guitar work on this album (not all of it) is just a bit too dated.
