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 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.2/100, a mean average of 73.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.5.

Criminally underrated?
Not bad!
The first few songs are alright, but around Mothball The Fleet it picks up in quality and stay great.

Fun with a thin veil of noise.

This is actually amazing. Constantly switching between quirky/rhythmic (a la Talking Heads) and gloriously melodic. And there are some genuinely epic bursts of sonic power every now and then.

Low-fi suits these guys incredibly well. The album is a bit of a blur, but a really fun endorphin-filled blur. Perfect for late-night shenanigans with friends.
