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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.5/100, a mean average of 75.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.6.

This album is nice to listen, but most songs are soooo overrated. 8/10.

Real Estate fill the vast void left by the disbandment of Galaxie 500. Their songs are like long lost friends or perhaps more apt a faded, thread bear sweater that becomes more comfortable with age. They have an unapologetically preppy & collegiate vibe to them that reeks of lazy summers spent at the shore while other kids are pulling in minimum wage. And I'm fine with that. They live a slackers life from being overprivileged and their music politely hums that they do not have a care in the world. Theirs is the life that I want to live.

This is their debut. And already their signature sound is firmly in place and sounds well lived in. The album is not perfect as there is some filler most noticeably Let's Rock The Beach, but it's a very impressive & confident debut. A fantastic jangle pop album that has weathered their huge rise in popularity quite well.

Grade: A-. These kids know how to test. It's not nearly as good as their subsequent albums, but it's pretty vital & a very welcome part of their discog.

Sure, this is them in their lo-fi beginnings but damn, even back then they could put together a superb record.
