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 is rated in the top 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.3/100, a mean average of 77.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.9.

One of the best indie releases of 2017. Fantastic voice, fantastic flow to the album, good lyrics and a rather interesting sound. Not just peak girlpower, but a great album through and through.

Getting a lot of "Everything but the girl" vibes here. The slight jazzy touch. A great singer with a small shrill voice

Personally it didn't quite hit the highs of Psychopomp but all in all I can definitely say I'm a fan of this album. Machinist and This House are well worth your time and I'm definitely looking forward to the next release by Japanese Breakfast.
