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 26% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.5/100, a mean average of 72.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.2.

After the fantastic last album Art of a Doubt with a fresh, stylish sound, I was really hyped, however, this just doesn't work. It sounds dated. As they got out of touch with current music, however, wanted to somehow catch up with it. Well... It didn't work out.

Ah good ol’ Metric the poor mans New Pornographers are still around cranking out their familiar electronica shtick. This one starts out ok with a strong opening quartet of “Doomscroller” / “All Comes Crashing” / “What Feels Like Eternity” and title track “Formentera” but unfortunately things quickly fall away with a host of duds to close out

How old are Metric now? I feel like I can carbon date the band by the opener "Doomscroller". Sad to see another kind of cool Canadian band fall into the 'BrooklynDad' twitter black hole. Did they just reference Qanon? Dance music that's impossible to dance to.
