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 72.4/100, a mean average of 71.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.3.

Some of the bars and beats are interesting, and for some reason Trout Mask Replica was brought to mind. However, the delivery of the vocalist was just plain annoying.
Ideas all over the place, and very hard to digest. By the time you try to do it, it's over.

this is more concept music than a pleasure producing record. but it must be admitted that this is definitly no chumming album. there are only uncompromising, feral, energetic and harsh tracks in a row.
Decent collection of short songs
great stuff...attention span not required :)
