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 24% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.8/100, a mean average of 74.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.8.

"Drive That Fast" is in my personal Top 10 of the best songs ever made. Other favorite tracks: "He Holds Her, He Needs Her" and "Railwayed".

Not their best album, Love Is Hell is far better, there are too many indistinguishable album tracks here with nothing really standing out mid-section.

Debatably their best album, Strange Free World had a number of great tracks. My faves were Drive That Fast and Within the Daze of Passion. KoD are often linked with other shoegazer bands but Imo their sound was far more direct. regardless of classification, this is excellent guitar driven stuff.
