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 72.2/100, a mean average of 70.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.4.

Not King Monkeys finest, few too many clunkers on this Sunshine and Lions are particular low points for me... There's a solid 38 minute LP in here with some editing... My Star, Corpses, Nah Nah all fantastic, the rest of the songs range from poor to ok...

I heard this at the time after having the first 2 singles and enjoying those but thinking this album was awful. Listening now it's not as bad as I thought, though my expectations were so low. Listenable but most of it sounds like demos and some of the drums are laughable. I'd rather listen to this than the seahorses record, brown still has charm. Really the only studio album of his I need is golden greats and his best of is really only what most need.

This album is actually in my 'hall of shame' as one of the worst I've ever heard. The singles are fine, but some of the album tracks are so poor it makes me wonder if Brown might actually have been taking the piss.
