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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.1/100, a mean average of 80.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.9.

This album is so underrated. It's amazing how they could put together an ethereal vibe but still sound like rock. It's dreamy but it's dense and complicated.
Gorgeous little record by an overlooked underrated band. The songs are sweet and delicate, and maybe they never bettered this on the long, ultimately traumatic road thay took through 'shoegaze' and 'Brit Pop', but for this brief shining moment they were beautiful and rich with promise.

Excellent debut. Best tracks: Thoughtforms and Scarlet.
