Rating metrics: Help 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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 79.1/100, a mean average of 79.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.2.

It's an accessible album in Boris's discography; has an average amount of tracks of an album - 11, most of the tracks are of an average length and are faster-paced.
Boris has always showcased its expertise in several music genres relating to very heavy, distorted and noisy guitars, and this album is no exception, hence, for this album, Pink showcases mostly its Stoner Rock, Noise Rock and Stoner Metal soundscapes and more surprises, and as usual, Boris's riffs are quite semi-simple, but also quite consonant and very catchy! Who knew pink could be this aggressive!
The CD release of this album was the very first one, so this album has different tracklist and different track lengths which are cut shorter, but in my opinion the LP release has the better experience; as it saves the longer tracks for last, although the CD version cuts off the repetitive sections in most of the long songs.
II've always liked the crunchy badass sound of stoner music, e.g. Queens of the Stone Age, so Boris's Pink is a landmark in the stoner world, a masterpiece! earning Boris a high spot on the stone along with QotSA and Kyuss.
It has been while since II kept listening over and over to one album. so Pink is one of most addictive albums II've ever listened to! And II recommend you to listen to it, either if you like stoner music or not!

The fact this isn't in the top 10 of the year highlights this site's weird bias against metal.

Mixing Noise rock with sludgy, doomy, stoner metal has to be one of the best ideas anyone has ever come up with.
This album is a full frontal assault of noise and it's just so much fun, fantastic listen, highly recommended to anyone into fast-paced noisy rock/metal

A pretty good album overall, but nothing really stands out to me other than the awesome, shoegazey "Farewell". And the latter half of the closing track gets pretty cool. The rest is fun but fairly forgettable

This Japanese doom metal album is bigger than Godzilla or any sumo wrestler.
