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 70.8/100, a mean average of 70.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

A much more polished effort than their first release. With this record, The Fugs push music forward into a space that few if any could have seen coming. The first nine songs sound like fully flushed-out music with decent vocals, good instrumentation (particularly the electric guitars) and great songwriting. The songwriting was what set them apart from others on their first album and it does so again on their second. They are unafraid to tackle the most controversial subject matter and they do so with a subtlety that didn't exist on their debut. My favorite among these is "Coming Down". Then there is the closing epic "Virgin Forest". Through eight movements, The Fugs come up with one of the first soundscapes to appear in popular music and create something that can exist on its own as a work of art. This is probably incorrect but to my knowledge, The Fugs are the first band to make something that transcends music. The live version of "I Want To Know" is much better than the album version, I think.
