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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.2/100, a mean average of 75.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.2.

Poor man's National is way too harsh for these guys, it may not be the most consistent album, but there are some great moments and enough variety to justify a full album.

Lo-fi production. Hi-fi songwriting.
Just getting into this band (thanks to "Seven Psychopaths") and this is the album I started with. Still hard to pinpoint them as they have sounds in garage rock, baroque pop, classic rock, and indie rock. I like the consistency of this album and am looking forward to my future listens of theirs other albums. Favorite Tracks: The Rat, Little House of Savages, Thinking of a Dream I Had
Hilariously underrated by everyone, absolutely class album,
nice dark atmosphere created by choosing old instruments. some few weak moments. still, overall very good record. the rat is amazing.
