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 6% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.9/100, a mean average of 76.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.8.

Probably Malkmus' best solo record so far. Certainly it's one of the tightest.

Two years after disbanding Pavement, Stephen Malkmus was back, releasing his solo debut. The quality isn't any dropoff from Pavement either, and it sounds like he's got his creative juices flowing, moreso than on the last couple Pavement releases. Check out the lead track "Black Book" and my favorite song here, "The Hook."
