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 72.3/100, a mean average of 71.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.3.

Consolidating the work done on the first album, The Vaccines Come Of Age is another collection of dumb, fun, rock 'n' roll (take note Animal Collective & Grizzly Bear) SONGS. Sure, the boys are hardly the most innovative kids on the block but the new album is a welcome shot in the arm just as rock is beginning to disappear completely up it's own arse.
After a good debut, the new album is just as interesting. You can put it on the shelf and listen to a few times :)
Selfish bratty pop music about the adults who never stoped being teenagers. Perfect for the can't get off the internet generation.
Maybe not quite as strong as What Did You Expect - it still has the same pop energy and delivery with plenty going for it with the first three songs, Weirdo and Lonely World managing to hit the heights for me
Solid album, although doesn't hit the heights of their debut. My favourites are Aftershave Ocean and No Hope.
