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 has a Bayesian average rating of 73.0/100, a mean average of 71.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.7.

I only stumbled across this band in 2021 with A Fever Dream and I loved that. This album started and initially I hated it until it got to the middle set of songs and I warmed to them. Even the first 3 or 4 listens I was still feeling no love for the opening half - suddenly something clicked and I thought - what am I thinking? MY KZ, UR BF and Qwerty Finger are superb along with Leave The Engine Room. Highlight for me though is still NASA Is On Your Side.

Higgs' vocal range is insane. A great debut album but the best was yet to come. My highlights are Tin (the Manhole), Qwerty Finger and My Kz Ur BF. 2:00 to 3:30 of Qwerty Finger might just be my favourite bit of music ever. It's up there with the intros to Brown Sugar and Gimme Shelter, and when the guitar comes in on With Or Without You. Strong praise but it is just that good....

Very strange but kind of listenable in parts. It's like traveling in space.
