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 14% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.2/100, a mean average of 74.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.4.

An album now part of the memory of my vanishing youth. The balance of rock to pop ratio is the exact amount to stimulate my ears, and get my body moving on a dance floor when really its just my living room at 1:00 am on a saturday night.

I wish more people new about this band, because they are really great. Emily Haines is amazing...songs like Patriarch On A Vespa, Monster Hospital, and Live It Out are indy rock masterpieces.
If you have seen her live, you will know she is a diva, but she knows how to rock. This album is a good example of that.
