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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.5/100, a mean average of 70.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

Slippi is pretty great, but the rest is 40 minutes of self-indulgent bullshit.

So I guess this is what happens when you put a panda bear in a recording studio... What was a geologist doing there anyway?

Bunch of kids whose parents never told them “no”.
I kind of agree with PsychologistHD. This album is far too difficult to listen to, and it's way too harsh for my taste. Thank God that Animal Collective ditched this sound over the course of their career.

Starts off with a bang and drones for forty or so minutes. I enjoyed the album, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't occasionally lose patience with it.
