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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.5/100, a mean average of 77.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.8.

Boston's Pile have released a terrific album full of energy , venom and deconstructed songs which sits amongst my best albums for 2107
What is a Hairshirt ?
'A hair shirt is a shirt made of rough uncomfortable cloth which some religious people used to wear to punish themselves. ... If you say that someone is wearing a hair shirt, you mean that they are trying to punish themselves to show they are sorry for something they have done'
And it's not the first time this term has appeared in modern rock . The track "Hairshirt" also appears on R.E.M's 1989 album Green , a slow ballad featuring Peter Bucks trademark mandolin
If you get into this album you wont be punishing yourself , trust me you'll be doing yourself a favour
65/100
