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 60.9/100, a mean average of 57.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 57.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.2.

The entirety of “Five Easy Hot Dogs” is just simple guitar tracks. They are pleasant and calm but give nothing beyond that. No ideas are expanded, no melodies built, no textures added. Each track is almost indistinguishable from the others. Without anything greater, the whole project feels disposable.

youre not gettin it
That one guy who has to bring his guitar to every party and play it to try to impress girls.
Is this a joke?

As an Mac DeMarco anti-fan, the fact there’s no vocals on this album shoots it to the top of his best albums list. Not a great listen though.
