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 69.5/100, a mean average of 68.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.2.

A highly competent, often sparkling, lyrically amorphous synth-pop album from Dum Dum Girls that achieves very-good-but-not-quite-great status. To my ear the moment on this record where frontwoman Dee Dee and company come closest to realizing their lofty potential is "In the Wake of You," which uses contrasting major and minor keys to achieve genuinely affecting emotional impact. It's been five years since we've heard from Dum Dum Girls, and I hope we haven't heard the last of them--since this effort feels right on the verge of genuine brilliance.

It would be easy to lump these ladies in with the other gaze-pop acts that have cropped up recently, and many do just that. But, compared to their peers, there is more energy in both the instrumentation and the vocal delivery. The result is something altogether more interesting and engaging. Imagine Chrissie Hynde sitting in with The Stone Roses and you are most of the way there.

In some ways, they positively remind me of the synth-techno-rock groove of mid-90s acts like Curve and Snake River Conspiracy.
