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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.8/100, a mean average of 75.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.6.

This is dance pop at its finest. Top tracks are opener "feel the love", "out there on the ice", "lights and music", "hearts on fire" and "far away". The opening tracks feel both synthetic and warm. cut copy has a pet shop boys quality to them of putting out these processed dance pop tunes with somewhat flat vocals that still have a warmth and heart to them. Hits "lights and music" and "hearts on fire" typify this sound at their best. Both songs are like subtle party jams -- they don't blast out like basement jaxx or rivet like daft punk, but make you wanna dance in a new order -sorta way. Very groovy album in an understated kind of way. (Edited)
Better than its influences, an orgasmic head rush from start to finish. Music for the head, the feet and the heart (Edited)

I've been listening to these songs for years without knowing that it was Cut Copy. Anyway, this is solid.
this album is one of the only albums i can use the cheesy critique "gives me tingles".
Listened without excitation and emotions. Example of the music you can listen to and doing something else.
