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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.5/100, a mean average of 76.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.5.

Some good songs, but it seemed like a step backward from their previous albums, despite being an ostensibly ambitious album. Still, "Paperback Head" is an absolute gem

I still prefer the bareness of "if it was you" but they've evolved their sound in a more "professional" studio setting (partially helmed by death cab's Chris walla) to deliver some fun, new wavey lite girl punk that still finds a way to display their narcissistic view of love in a sunny, upbeat fashion. Songs like "don't rush", "hell" and "on directing" can be placed alongside any of their other best songs (and "hell" just might be my favorite). There's not much else to say except that their music always seems to sound fresh despite sticking to their basic two-girl wavey formula.
