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 72.7/100, a mean average of 71.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.3.

The Manics best album of this century and as good or better than most of their 90's output ??
My introduction to the Manics, full of energy and whip-smart songwriting and pop hooks. Worth having.
This is very much their pop album, and it is superb
Good album, but it's too lightweight compared to classics like The Holy Bible and Gold Against The Soul.
I'm a bit surprised, this is actually much better than I expected.
A great return after a couple of rather mediocre albums.
Didn't like it at first. I thought it was too cheesy, especially "Your Love Alone Is Not Enough". I think differently now, well, I was going to list my favourite songs, but then I realized that all songs here are strong! It has a great energy and catchiness.
