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 72.4/100, a mean average of 71.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.9.

This album is fresh despite that they borrow on ideas from 80s synth pop and rock acts. A lot of bands are aiming for that throwback sound these days, but I think Twin Shadow has figured out the formula to succeed at it. Fantastic Album!

The early 80s synth wave and mid 80s alternative comes to mind when i listen to twin shadow, a range including new order, naked eyes and the cure. Contemporary comparisons would include Yeasayer and Diamond Rings. There's a gloom behind the vocals of each song, where most songs are synth-charged upbeat numbers of drum machines and somewhat shoe-gazing beats. (If late-2011 single "changes" was on this album, this would be a borderline top 5 album.) Don't let the douchey cover art deter you.
