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 77.1/100, a mean average of 76.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.4.

Very underrated, more people should give it a try. This is one of the best and most cohesive Dinosaur Jr albums.

Beginning of Dinosaur Jr. going downhill after Lou Barlow left. Some good songs here and there (The Wagon, Puke + Cry, How'd You Pin That One On Me), the rest is mediocre.

E poi chi se ne frega se l'allievo Kurt Cobain riesce ad ottenere un successo planetario con "Nevermind". Il maestro J. Mascis, col suo modo sgraziato di porgere melodie di loro bellissime, non avrebbe mai potuto arrivare così in alto. Lo avrebbe meritato, però, almeno con questo disco guarda caso sempre del 1991. Belle melodie e furia ritmica che si ferma sempre prima ( un bel po' prima… ) di diventare terrorismo sonoro; un taglio artigianale e quasi dilettantistico che per una volta piace…

The music scene in Amherst/Northampton, Massachuetts, back in the late eighties and early nineties has to have produced more great bands per capita than any other in history. J Mascis is one of rock history's greatest under-the-radar guitar gods, underrated perhaps because his extravagant soloing contrasts in such an extreme way with his underachieving slacker vocal style. I'm going a little against the grain here by choosing Green Mind as Dinosaur Jr.'s best album, but I've got to call this one as I see it: I prefer the tight instrumentation and relatively clean production here to the sludgy, sloppy (if wonderful) mess that is You're Living All Over Me. It's not like the band "sold out" or lost its identity on this album (or, really, any of their albums)--and really, can any album whose best song is called "Puke + Cry" really be considered overproduced for mass consumption?

No sell-out (despite the accusations) here. Another stellar alt-rock gem.

Affirmation through apathy. Tardiness never sounded so uplifting.
