Rating metrics: Help 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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.8/100, a mean average of 76.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.9.

Experimental and interesting, but has a tendency to be shrill, unnecessarily repetitive and frankly annoying. A difficult album to get through, only redeemed by the clear intellect behind the way it chooses to experiment.

cool album, experimental and poppy at the same time!
Very ENO-istic.

Deacon's mastery at melding synth, computer and sample compositions is pretty awesome. None of these songs are boring. There are so many interesting layers that build on top of each other, it's nuts. Like "embryonic" (by the flaming lips), this album is pretty musically dense too, but while embryonic's density is a result of a "wall of fuzz'n'bass", deacon's is more a result of a ton of musical ideas layered into a frenetic whirlwind of saccharin-sweet delights. I'm kind of amazed at how much I like this album, because I'm usually partial to vocals and deacon's vocals are generally not the focus of each song. This is a testament to how good of songs he composes, mostly on computer. He's also not as cornball as he was on "spiderman of the rings" which gives his compositions more weight. This is noise pop at its finest.
