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 69.7/100, a mean average of 68.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 69.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.6.

Centipede Hz receives too much hate imho, a majority of these tracks are wonderful and merely lack an obvious connection to AnCo's previous work (ex. Monkey RIches). A crazy album with some crazy moments
Not Animal Collective's best effort- but that doesn't mean that it doesn't have it's moment. Today's Supernatural, Moonjock, New Town Burnout, Applesauce, and Monkey Riches are all great- but sadly it's not one of their albums I like to listen to all the way through.
Didn't think that I would like this initially, but it grew on me over time. A little inconsistent, and the experimentation doesn't always work, but it's solid nonetheless.
Probably in my two three albums with Merriweather and Feels.
average bea: "pitchfork gave this a 7.4, so that means I don't like this."
average bea: "I hate hip hop!" except for kanye west, pitchfork gave one of his albums a 10/10 . . . oh and kendrick, too.
Crazy record, much more that Merriweather. But this is precisely the reason why I like it so much, you never get bored of it.
The songwriting is almost as good as Merriweather. The production is much crisper, and after a few listens the supposed "busyness" melts away, as it does on any other Anco release. I put this in the top 3 of theirs.
This album is not their best. It’s good, definitely, has some great songs, but it is not their best. There are parts of the album that seem a bit long-winded and slightly repetitive. However, if you are a fan of Animal Collective, you’ll enjoy this album enough. It’s not “Merriweather Post Pavillion" and it’s not “Strawberry Jam" but it’s good.
Crank this on vinyl, drink a brew and chill out. Thats when youll really appreciate it.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
