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 69.4/100, a mean average of 68.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.8.

This album is all over the place - but in a good way.
It actually took me about 25 listens to properly 'tame' this album and feel as if I knew what was happening on it. A good while more passed before I realised how good it was - as in, how eclectic the tracklist is and how successful the band are in executing all these varied ideas / styles. Punk, post-punk, psychedelic and a lot of other types of influences can be found here. The album also has a really nice, textured sound and manages to stay in control of itself despite all the changes of pace / direction.

Underrated and undervalued, BSP regularly piss out great album's to no-one's notice, unfair! If you want to listen to intelligent well-crafted rock with something to say beyond boy meet's girl, girl leave's boy BSP are the band for you.

Another good album from a band that try to new ways to present themselves.
