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 70.8/100, a mean average of 70.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 8.8.

More synth and electronic based than their previous albums. Still quite dreamlike and ambient, but the synths & slight EDM flurries fail to keep you hooked. Bit of a misstep in my opinion and doesn't hit the spot like their other albums do.

I think it's really good, especially with multiple listens. Definitely seems overlooked in their catalogue which is too bad.
Mercury Rev goes electronic, and the experiment works very well!
