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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.9/100, a mean average of 74.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.5.

Their sound and humor doesn't completely translate to country, but the songs are generally more enjoyable than any contemporary country music.

I know it's kind of a joke, but the music is really good. I actually like some of the more serious songs like I'm holding you and I don't want to leave you on the farm

Even if it's a parody of Country music, it's more listenable than the top 40 country

Ween have always been good at switching up styles within the same album, but on the single occasion that they buckled down and hammered out an album of tunes of the same genre, they really fucking hit it out of the park. Even with all the cringe-worthy mainstream country songs with overused chord progressions, Ween manages to make straight up country music stand out on one of the very few times that it ever has.
