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 72.3/100, a mean average of 71.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.7.

I can't praise this album enough: it's deeply rooted in old Led Zep, Black Sabbath and the likes but it really deserves its place as a work of art on its own. The epic In the Castle is my favorite here but also Phoenix is great as well as all the other tracks on this album. A truly great album.
This is an underrated album. Most people think this is a bad remake of their debute album. That is not the case. It has a fantastic sound with great rock songs. I agree that it needs a few times listening, but is really worth it. I prefer the 16 track version of the album.
And also: great artwork!
Creating a second record that is essentially a replication of the first, but that's no problem because i like the first one.

Listened to this on a whim today. I was big on it back in 2010 when I was just getting into music and had never listened to a Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath album. I was curious if it was any good and I had only given up on it because of the band's reputation. Uhhh it's good but not great. I actually don't see a big Led Zeppelin connection, since it's not really a bluesy record, and it's not as heavy as Black Sabbath. There are some weak tracks that feel like imitations of the worst rock of the 70s, including the first two. I really like Sundial though, it's got a nice stoner rock vibe, as does 10,000 Feet. Far Away might be my favorite just because it has sentimental value. I guess it's pretty much what I expected, might come back to those good songs but don't think I'll ever listen to the whole thing again.
Great album. Good follow up to their debut. They meld 60's, 70's, & 80's hard rock together so well and can call it there own. The thing with this is how instantly familiar and predictable it felt. That can be both a blessing and a curse. Time will tell
