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 73.4/100, a mean average of 73.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.1.

Pretty good record overall. In the middle, after "Broke Me Up" and "Gang Bang Suicide", I was about to give up, thinking I had gone past the 3 good tracks this album would hold, but tracks like "Big Love", and "Back Out On The..." caught my attention again. Solid tracks thrown in here, but not fantastic as a whole effort. It shows that Kevin Drew can do just fine on his own, but listening to this record makes me miss the seven or so more instruments I usually hear behind his voice in the Broken Social Scene records. BSS fans will still dig it though, I'm sure. A lot stronger on the faster tracks than the slower tracks, to me.
Strong Tracks: "F-ked Up Kid", "Safety Bricks", "Lucky Ones", "Frightening Lives", "Big Love", "Back Out On The..."
Weaker Tracks: "Gang Bang Suicide", "Underneath the Skin"

A good sound, but none of the songs really hold my interest. Gets a bit repetitive after a while.

If you like the Broken Social Scene, there's a good chance you'll like this. Start with "lucky ones" or "f*cked up kid" to find out.
