Rating metrics: Help 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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 80.4/100, a mean average of 79.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.8.

Great release, though quite overshadowed by Parker's more recent releases. Gets a little slow sometimes, but picks up with some absolute fantastic tracks. Really surprised It Is Not Meant to Be and Alter Ego are rated so low. Or runaway Houses, cities, clouds. The later tracks is a long, gorgeous psychedelic number that could be listened to for days and flows like a river

The musical genius Kevin Parker places his psychedelic tunes back into fashion. Unique tunes out of a seemingly bottomless mystical vault provide grounds for many multiple muses. Their use of instruments/equipment is arguably the most masterful of 2010. Highlights include: Solitude is Bliss, Desire Be Desire Go, Alter Ego and Expectation. A Must Hear!

The comments here are pretty spot on. I can usually make it about halfway through the album before I start to get distracted about how practically every song sounds like the same John Lennon song. Don't get me wrong, it's a good Lennon tune, but not one I want to hear 11 times. I'm hoping for some really good shit on their next album, because they obviously know how to work the equipment they have, now it's time to make something original.

This is too complex for my brain, but I think I am as close as I will be to understanding it. Kevin Parker managed to make a full album. And by that I mean it doesn't lack anything, listening to this album non-stop is such an overwhelming experience. 8.8/10.
