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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.4/100, a mean average of 77.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.0.

Has a Kraftwerk feel but not so original.
Ladytron feel a little like a modern female electronic relative of Roxy Music considering both bands are tragically fashionable yet often write songs cynical of the human obsessions with fame, glamour and fashion. On Light & Magic, Ladytron are sleek and catchy as they channel 80's bands like Depeche Mode, New Order and especially Book of Love while updating the sound. Feature tracks are Seventeen and Evil.
