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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.6/100, a mean average of 76.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.7.

Banda extraordinária! Brinca com o pop e com o experimental com maestria.
dEUS debut Worst Case Scenario was phenomenal debut. But the clash of egos jeopardized their chance to capitalize on this. After some reshuffles in the band (including addition of Craig Ward), dEUS found a new equilibrium which led to their third album, my favorite. Their love for Captain Beefhaert is still noticeable, but the also explore melodic territories. Favorites are Fell of Floor, Serpentine and especially the Roses. (Edited)

As far as I know, this album was released before Blur (1996 vs 1997). I've always felt that the chord progression at one point in Fell Off The Floor is way too similar to what Blur did with Song 2. Was Song 2 inspired by this? Does anyone else hear this? Give it a listen - do you think Damon Albarn owes something to dEUS, or am I barking up the wrong tree? (Edited)
