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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.0/100, a mean average of 78.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.2.

Wonderfully heartbreaking prelude to Ryan Adams' solo career, this is probably the top alt-country gem of the 90s.

I'm not normally one of those musical listeners who tends to prefer every artist's "old school" work. While I often appreciate the raw energy and creativity of first albums, I almost always see improvements in subsequent work because, usually, the artist has a clearer artistic vision and, let's be honest, a little more money to work with in the studio. Given those caveats, I really do appreciate Faithless Street as a very strong first effort by Ryan Adams and company. This is Whiskeytown at their most straightforwardly alt-country, and their raw passion shines through on just about every track, particularly the piercing ballad "Black Arrow, Bleeding Heart."
My all time favorite album. Definitely the best album from the alt country scene, and probably the best country album period.
