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 70.4/100, a mean average of 70.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.6.

I love this album. I'd put it narrowly between All Hour Cymbals and Odd Blood. There's a lot more acoustic exploration on this album and some really unique sound textures arise out of this, which only goes on to accent the strange lyrics in a really mutually beneficial way.

J'adore cet album (comme le groupe) en particulier le morceau 1 Fingers never bleeds

Seriously underrated band on this site. One of the best albums of 2012 for me
"Let's make "All Hour Cymbals" again without any of the hooks!" No, thanks.

Yeasayer's sound hasn't budged from their last release. There are less "hits" on this indie synth-rock album, pointing to a more "complicated" feel this time around. "reagan's skeleton" and "devil and the deed" are the best tracks if you're looking for a place to start.

This was a serious departure from the brilliance of Odd Blood...I feel like Yeasayer is getting weirder, but not necessarily getting better...

They just keep going further and further away from what I enjoyed on all our symbols. On the bright side, I guess it does make Odd Blood look a little bit better now.
