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 71.5/100, a mean average of 71.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.6.

It's not the greatest thing ever, but it's not as bad as everyone likes to claim. Unremarkable, but the seeds are there for what would eventually become Kaputt.

Streethawk: A Seduction was so good and This Night is such a tremendous let down compared to what came before it. This is a long album for Destroyer standards and the listener feels every painful minute. The albums only bright side is the song Goddess of Drought. Check out that song and the decent "Modern Painters" and then leave the rest for the birds.

It's pretty much a sequel to the opus that is Streethawk but just like Poison Season, that doesn't mean it has to live in its shadow.
