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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.3/100, a mean average of 75.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

Nice and chill! Rating (79.17)
Great album.
This album is so incredible! It was my AOTY 2015.
Very good album. Very distinct sound; a unique and rewarding listen.
What a shame.
I was really expecting to enjoy this album. Not only that, I really WANTED to love this album! But, no. There's only one problem I have with this album, and it's a biggie: the vocal performance is atrocious. I'm sure to other people it sounds "soulful" or whatever, but to me, it's grating. Like nails on a chalkboard. The music is fine. The instrumentation and melodies are really good, especially for today's culture. Unfortunately, I could not get past the singer's annoying voice.
If you like this album, good for you, I just couldn't stand it.
Alabama Shakes are a powerful and tremendous band.
Solid. Just really, really solid.
Upon first listen to this album I was loving some of the tracks (Future People, Don't Wanna Fight No More, Gimme All Your Love). It took a few more listens to start appreciating some of the other songs, but I now like them just as much! The singers powerful voice just oozes soul throughout the entire album!
it's definitely a grower. I'm really starting to enjoy it after a few listens. Unique sound compared to some of the other things being released
Best Alabama Shakes album till now. They deserve more attention.. Let's see whats coming in near future
