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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.6/100, a mean average of 77.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.8.

Beautiful album. Not sure what genre I'd call it, everything about it seems to indicate shoegaze, but when you dig deep, you find there's metal at its heart.
Like biting into a giant piece of delicious shoegaze and then discovering an even tastier hint of metal within.
Just really, really fantastic. Ethereal shoegaze and post-metal covering the entire realm of emotion. Something really hopeful is hidden within.
The perfect mix between Shoegaze and Metal.

I liked this a lot when I first found it, and was just beginning to explore blackgaze (coming from the shoegaze end of the spectrum). However, after coming back to it, it just seems overly safe and simplistic from a production and songwriting perspective. I suppose it has some metal influence, but really all it that entails is being able to hear the drums clearly. I think i would consider it a mediocre shoegaze album now. I would recommend to anyone who likes where this is going to listen to Sunbather by Deafheaven. Ya, it has those screaming vocals that can be very off-putting for at least the first few listens, but it is really quite amazing music once you get past that part.
