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 72.3/100, a mean average of 72.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 8.8.

Rachel Aggs is a member of two really good dance punk bands; Sacred Paws and Shopping. Whereas Sacred Paws has an Afrobeat sound, Shopping is more postpunk and pays obvious homage to 80's bands like ESG, Bush Tetras and Delta 5. Produced by Edwyn Collins, this is Shopping's third album and their best record to date.

Danceable post-punk in the vein of Gang Of Four (with just a hint of Sleater-Kinney too!) .While not very original it is still aces if you crave this sound. Extremely well done post-punk.
