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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.5/100, a mean average of 78.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 79.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.5.

Eclectic yet cohesive, complex yet direct, simple yet profound. Insanely good!
This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.
An interesting mixture of their old style with newer, rougher edges. This album isn't as consistent as Bonito Generation but it is more varied.
Favourite Tracks: Time Today, Sometimes, Make Believe
Least favourite track: Only Acting
A fun, accessible but still really interesting album. Hope the band keeps their heat. Worthy for higher rank anyway.....
BLOWN AWAY
yeah i'm surprised this hasn't done better on this site . 88th is pretty low, it's in my top 10 anyway. i love that the bouncy, childlike artifice has been corroded away leaving great pop tunes, albeit with a bitter layer on top

I still can't quite understand why KKB's stuff makes me so nostalgic...

This is a fantastic album, Kero Kero Bonito got past their j-pop novelty and decided to produce some of the best nostalgic sounding synth pop songs of the year, with a dash of rock. The subject matter is more serious and relatable this time around, but it still manages to maintain the lightheartedness, fun and joy of their previous works.Definitely a must this year, dont sleep on this band please.
It doesn't seem like too many others are, but I'm thoroughly impressed w this album. Love the mixture of distortion and synth, and there's a good amount of variety with the production and melodies. A really mature release from a band who I had only expected bouncy, carefree pop from.
