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 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.2/100, a mean average of 74.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

Bon Iver (SF - USA - Apr 25) - Sable, Fable

11.04.2025

A bit glitchy at times, it’s still probably my favourite of Justin Vernon’s output, other than perhaps 2011s ‘Bon Iver, Bon Iver’. Could imagine drifting along the fast lane of the autobahn, thinking of spent sun tan lotion and oregano-flecked feta, whilst a 4-mile tailback of angry Alpina drivers are flicking v’s with reckless, bodykit-fuelled abandon. Expansionist, but not in an invade Greenland sort of way. The skies may never close but, when Michael Laudrup’s hair bounces in the wind, top down and product free, there is little as soothing in 2025. No one dares undertake.
