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 has a Bayesian average rating of 70.5/100, a mean average of 69.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.0.

* Favorite tracks: Certainty, I Wanna be Your Mirror, Born Into the Sunset, Mystery of Pop
* Least favorite tracks: In My Pocket
* The highlights are infectiously catchy and melodic
* Very accessible Neo-psychedelic pop
* Not a challenging enough, songs are similar sounding and sometimes blend together

The more I listen to this, the more I can't stop thinking how infectious the melodies are, even if a bit corny (in a 60s psychedelic kind of way) at times.

82.5... some really intriguing songs and some really boring ones. Tracks 3, 4, 5, 7, 10 and 11 were the more intriguing ones.

Not nearly as good as their first album... kind of disappointed bc sun structures was one of my favs of 2014 and I still listen to it quite often.

This album is pretty good, lovely psychedelic sound and at points a certain 'Beatles' twang that I appreciated. The problem is that it is really just, to me at least, a worse version of 'Currents' by Tame Impala, but without the lyrically story lines. So, yeah it is a good album, but it will really just make you want to listen to Currents instead.
