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 67.3/100, a mean average of 65.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.9.

This is not a bad effort by Corgan. Although some songs seem naive and girly (as described by my mom when she heard me listening to this album), the album still holds up moderately as a whole. The only song I absolutely cannot stand is Run2Me.
We should be happy with this release, as Corgan actually gave a good effort- and we should just face the fact the nothing will be as good as Pumpkin's 1990's records.
Good, consistent album - not quite as good as Oceania but significantly better then Zeitgeist. Dorian is probably the low point, and that's not too bad a song. No real top notch tracks but a solid effort.
Most of this album is great and what I was expecting post Oceania and Teargarden
However there are a couple of really poor songs that I am surprised Mr Corgan put on the record
Because of this it does not quite live up to its two predecessors- but still beats zeigeist
Worth a listen
9 songs in a 'mini'-album (i.e. Between 30-40 minutes), yet delivers all thrills and no fillers.
Still blows me everytime I listened to it. :D
Smashing Pumpkins will never again be like the 90s, but still every now and then Corgan writes some good songs. Not a great album, and a few songs are pretty bad, but there are a couple great songs to take from.
Best songs: Drum + Fife (my favorite from the album), Dorian, Being Beige, One and All
