The Getaway ratings

Average Rating:

68/100 (from 278 votes)

Average Rating = (n ÷ (n + m)) × av + (m ÷ (n + m)) × AV

where:

av = trimmed mean average rating an item has currently received.

n = number of ratings an item has currently received.

m = minimum number of ratings required for an item to appear in a 'top-rated' chart (currently 10).

AV = the site mean average rating.

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 68.1/100, a mean average of 67.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 67.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.2.

There have always been detractors of RHCP, always will be, it seems. Lots of us think the old boys are repping great rock just fine, here. Helpful?

They have some really catchy stuff like Go Robot. Check out Dreams of A Samurai this album ends with a bang. Helpful?

Red Hot put completely aside the rock but what does that matter when we are in the presence of one of the best albums of this historic band?

Great POP album! Helpful? (Log in to vote) | +2 votes (2 helpful | 0 unhelpful) Rating: 95/100 Bungalowracoon From07/11/2016 19:32 I absolutely love this album



It's early days yet but at the moment this is my favourite album by the rhcp



Time will tell whether it's a laster but this has not been off my iPod since it was released about a month ago



It has the same laid back feel like "by the way" - which up to about a week ago had been my favourite rhcp album since its release back in my long distant youth



I did not like some of the production instantly , it didn't feel in my face enough for a rhcp album - but after a few listens I was hooked and couldn't remember what I'd disliked about it ??



Great tunes - great album Helpful? (Log in to vote) | +5 votes (5 helpful | 0 unhelpful) Rating: 50/100 Connor From07/06/2016 01:31 I check on this site every now and then to see if its doing better. Gets worse every time cause you guys fall in love with this quirky indie shit that is usually not at all original and yall vote it all the way to the top. This album takes from a lot of these "quirky" indie artists and the only good parts seem to be taking from something the peppers have already done. Dark necessities is a good track but its clearly a slowed down version of cant stop. Detroit and goodbye angels are good as well and i might even say sick love and encore are alright. The rest of the album doesn't sound like the peppers or anything good for that matter. If the peppers could somehow strike a deal with frusciante to let him take more control of the band there might be more hope for another great peppers release. I dont blame josh I blame lack of creativity on kiedis and flea. Chad is a great drummer and makes the best with whats in front of him as always. These last 2 albums (and one hot minute) have most definitely proved who brought the most to the band over the years. John is almost entirely responsible for the bands success and it seems like they wont be anything more than this without him. I hope what im saying gets proven wrong but it doesn't feel like it will. I really hope they will prove me wrong or john realizes the value of being in this band. Hes the god of The Red Hot Chili Peppers whether recording with them or doing his own thing. Helpful?
