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 72.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.1.

Good and underrated.
Best tracks: Love Is Noise, Sit and Wonder, Rather Be, I See Houses.

11 years after the great Urban Hymns, they proved they can still do it with this album which was a great surprise. Songs such as Love Is Noise, Rather Be, Sit And Wonder, will be instantly liked if you love Urban Hymns.

Appalachian Springs is an unbelievable song. A song only The Verve could create.
This album especially as you get closer to the end is underrated as F!!!
Columbo has maybe the best bass I have ever heard in my life, and Appalachian Springs made me shocked and think to myself: What the actual F did I just hear???!!!
This album in general is not far from Urban Hymns at all in my eyes

Worst album by The Verve, or less good I will say. Still a nice listen. 7/10.
