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 71.2/100, a mean average of 71.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.1.

Too bad that the Dandys were so volatile, that they couldn't keep it cohesively together. They put out some great work in a short while, this album being their top. Grooves easily from track to track. A great soundtrack to cocktails and sketchy women.

"The Last High" ist the only high of this album. I appreciate how they try to mix genres here but most songs simply don't deliver (album rating: 37,69 %)
Everything you'd expect from the 'Dandies'. Some great songs but mostly mediocre. Not there best album but not there worst
Track picks: We Used to Be Friends / I Am Sound / Rock Bottom
