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 12% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.4/100, a mean average of 73.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.0.

Remember my brother showing this to me when I was about 10 years old. I remember just how blown away I was with Dalle's alarmingly-powerful vocals. The songwriting (for a punk album) is fucking decent, and will leave you tapping your toes for most of the songs.
Like most other albums like, Coral Fang is bounded by the slowly-withering genre that encapsulates it, yet like i mentioned before it manages withstand these limitations and create something impressive and enjoyable for anybody who once-in-a-blue-moon wants to feel like their music is bludgeoning them with a microphone, in a good way of course.
Have u ever wondered what would have happened if Courtney Love had decided to do whatever it is that she does...SEDUCE.STALK. It's your call, America!...and went after Tim Armstrong of Op Ivy/Rancid fame in the wake of Live Though This? Well wonder No more. Super fun music that channels all that pseudo-rage of majors pretending to be indies during the Alt.Rock 90s. Sure it's contrived, but it's still incredibly fun!!!
