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 71.3/100, a mean average of 70.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

It's a good combination of punk, rock and alternate music, with great songs, however there are some low points ("T.H.E.H.I.V.E.S", "A Stroll Through..."),but without doubt the best songs are "Tick Tick Boom", "Won't Be Long", and in the end "Bigger Hole To Fill".

Probably the greatest garage punk band in the way that they keep high quality musicianship parodying lo-fi antics. This is definitely they're highlight with anthems such as Tick Tick Boom, Wont Be Long and gems like Square One, Well Alright, and Bigger Hole to Fill its hard not to like this quirky. Plus they recreate this whole charade in matching tuxedos live no less.
