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 25% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.6/100, a mean average of 73.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.5.

Almost good. But there is something in his voice that fails. Otherwise...

Totally digging this album. Not sure how it has been largely unnoticed by this website. One of the best albums of the 2010s. TOAS is an exceptionally good tune.

What a powerful, monolithic collection of song. Each one constructed expertly, and far ahead of its time.

Well this album is exquisite. Why has it flown so far under almost everyone's radar?

Great album for any person who loves indie. I must thank a teacher at my school for introducing me to them though.

Agree 100% with Cellar. EASILY top 20 of 2010, if not top 10. Like someone mashed up Kings Of Leon, Fleet Foxes, and the Microphones, all into one. 4/5

How this amazing album slipped through 2010 pretty much unnoticed is quite a tragedy. If you're not sure, listen to "TAOS". A hidden indie gem. Oh well, I'm a lucky one !
