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 73.6/100, a mean average of 74.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.9.

Tighten the area to increase the pressure. This is the guiding principle to Serpent Column’s Endless Detainment. Its nine song tracklist is only one fewer than last year’s Mirror in Darkness, but here the total runtime is sliced in half. Not even the longest cut reaches the four minute mark; guitarist James Hamzey and drummer M. Holloway refuse to afford these snarling, muscular outbursts the luxury of outstaying their welcome.
Even as each writhing mass desperately vies to extend its short lifespan, these songs are hardly malformed afterthoughts. Following the assault of opener “Pantheoclasm”, “Violence Aesthete” integrates into its own rhythm the lurching death throes of its predecessor, before it buries them under relentless blast beats and tremolo-picked guitar no less moving than the most anguished atmospheric black metal. All that, in barely two minutes.
Calling this EP ‘not for the faint of heart’ is enough of an understatement it verges on being facetious. Like the most rewarding tough listens, this isn’t a beast to be tamed, it’s a majesty to be awed. Come to terms with your own insignificance and you’ll find you can’t look away.
