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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.4/100, a mean average of 76.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

In music, the notions of good and bad taste seem to have disappeared since the Internet-King has housed everyone in the same boat and there is no real hierarchy to cling to. As such, the discovery of "Bravado", Australian Kirin J Callinan's second album, was a shock. "Bravado" is made up of some of the hottest stadium rock, synth pop syrup and country-tested testosterone EDM. Since when did I laugh so much while listening to a record? For a long time, I really consider this album as one of the most fun of all time. What was mistaken at the beginning for a big joke turns out to be the most alive and overflowing disc heard for a long time, which gives the listener the desire to come back to it constantly. Station, however, to one who will push a little too far the little game of derision...
9/10
Best track: "Big Enough"
