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 21% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.8/100, a mean average of 73.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.4.

Really odd instrumentals, that vibe well with the alt-rock vocals. If Phoenix met Radiohead, they might have made this album.
A very diverse album, really good tracks.

So good! Krautrock-y post-punk-y psych, somewhere in between LCD Soundsystem and Of Montreal. Excellent grooves, great melodies, fantastic songwriting.
Great album. Likely going to be one of 2018's best.
