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 76.0/100, a mean average of 76.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.3.

Much has been made of the the way JAMC changed their sound throughout their career. For me, there wasn’t as much variation as is often suggested - and that’s no bad thing. Their brand of bubblegum melodies wrapped in barbed wire feedback and guitars works brilliantly. This album is a gauzy ride with an almost shoegaze feel to the vocals. Possibly their best album.

Dark and slightly perverse, the 4th album from JAMC is well-produced and well-written, resulting in yet another successful record that marks a welcome return to the noise-pop days of "Psychocandy", although not nearly as abrasive.

It's okay, but after the first track it gets a bit dull.
