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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.5/100, a mean average of 74.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 8.5.

This album is awesome, so far it is my favorite album from 2018. When you consider that it is their 12th album, it gets even more impressive. Sloan has managed to keep a high level of consistency throughout the years and this album is the proof of that. I'd compare it to "Between The Bridges" in terms of pacing and overall feel. It is not as good as Between The Bridges, but this album would still be ranked somewhere between 5th and 8th in my top Sloan's album, which is good considering how many great albums this band has put out!
