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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.7/100, a mean average of 76.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.9.

I love this album more and more with each listen, and I find myself getting sucked into the lyrics and the overall mood of the album to the point where I just want to start it over again as soon as it's over. One of my favourites of 2017 so far.

Top tracks: Get Up, Wondering, The Call, Forget, Jenny GoGo

It seem's everytime my response to an album is "what the fuck", I end up loving it.

Easily one of my favourite albums from them in years. It feels like it shares many spiritual connections with the seminal, Fabulous Muscles. "Get Up" is like the most stereotypically Xiu Xiu ever conceived.

Another fine example why Xiu Xiu have been my favourite artistes of the decade. More unhinged, neurotic pop songs, more experimental pieces showing a willingness to try out new ideas, and for the first time, referencing their own past, particularly their classic 2004 album Fabulous Muscles e.g. (Get Up, Petite). Long may they continue their own distinctive and individual journey
