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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.2/100, a mean average of 76.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.9.

Even though this is pretty much a Peter Silberman solo thing, it's still Peter Silberman, so it's amazing.
I think this is their second best album after Hospice, but I honestly don't think it's all that far below. I would definitely still rate Hospice higher because it has incredibly good lyrics and it's a lot more emotional, but this album has a more calming feel to it, due in part to the way the songs run together, and it's a lot less dark so if I'm not in the mood for slow, depressing stuff it's more enjoyable to listen to. Overall, very good album. The highlight for me is The Universe Is Going To Catch You.

this album is horridly underrated. I don't know why, but i have always felt a closer connection to this rather than hospice or burst apart. the music just really connects to me on this album. I'll probably put it in my chart instead of hospice

Some decent songwriting, and a nice outing of sorts, but lacking in the crushing production and style that makes their following work so damn essential.
The world needs more concept-EPs. Such a joy to listen to in a short amount of time.
