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)

Much better than Ferment.

"Piètre" travelling through time... "Pain" can be saved from the whole album.

Despite missing the intoxicating wooziness of Ferment, Chrome has a powerful and invigorating sound.

Nice record. I need to start adjusting my expectations when I hear that a band is "shoegaze" though. I always think I'm going to hear a long lost My Bloody Valentine record every time I listen to a shoegaze band that I've never heard and it never goes down like that.
Much more heavier than Ferment. Standout tracks include Crank and Mary. Definitely worth a listen, although I think Ferment is better.
Shoegaze? I have never heard shoegaze this good before. Show Me Mary was even a great song!

Where is "Ferment"?
If you want shoegaze that'll make your balls drop. this is it/ Although many prefer Ferment. let's not forget this one/ It's more metallic but still sounds like shoegaze and it's mind-blowingly awesome. It's a must-listen.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
