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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.9/100, a mean average of 75.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.4.

charli xcx only went and made the perfect pandemic pop album. this is a genuinely stunning album about isolation, relationships, and not being with the people you love. insane production, good writing. proof once again she's the one. (Edited)
This is one of the greatest records in recent memory. If you are seriously complaining about the 1 or 2 note melodies, the entire appeal of this record just went right over your head.
It's okay to dislike the synth vox, I can't get into the Smiths because of Morrissey, but what got delivered with this record is simply the best Hyperpop record ever produced. (if you disagree with this take, the only other acceptable competitors are also charli albums or perhaps sophie) AG Cook and Charli at the peak of their powers with a deadline during one of the strangest times of many of our lives delivered what I think will be thought of as a defining record. Everything she tried to do with Pop 2 and Charli is fully actualized on this project.
I could go into a big dissertation about all the merits of this record, but simply put, this isn't a record where any amount of me defending it on this site is going to amount to a hill of beans. This isn't the type of record where a detailed deconstruction of the arrangement and the songwriting is going to add to the experience. But it's a type of record to give attention to again and again, if you get it you get it. And if you get it, you know what I'm talking about.
If you don't get it it, go back and listen to Pink Floyd and Radiohead. (Edited)
An often cheeky, often sincere, always revved up victory lap of her previous album (and magnum opus), How I'm Feeling Now is just a reminder that Charli XCX is our modern queen of pop. (Edited)
We have to protect Charli XCX at all costs.
First listen I thought this isn't for me at all I'm 40 year old , came home from work next day grabbed some beers and stuck it on headphones loud and the score went from a 5 to an 8 , some absolute bangers on this , proof not to give up on any album after a single listen (Edited)
