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 17% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.0/100, a mean average of 73.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.9.

Just because it's been done before doesn't mean it's bad. Creating melody and harmony will always be interesting, without being "in the front" of developing music. This album has many excellent songs, and some repeatable that you can be without.

The War on Drugs can still live on repeating one song on 3 albums (I like them) but getting away with it. And my least favoured band, the Beatles.... I think they sound the same over at least 15 records (But they dont) because I can't stand their voices.

I know I'm probably a minority when it comes to this... but... here goes... I can't stand this album. It's the same indie, folky stuff that we've heard from other artists, minus all the creativity and life that makes a lot of those acts interesting. This is unfortunate, as the musicians appear to have skill. This album is just... bad, but not unlistenably so. It's just immensely boring.
