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 72.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.5.

It's the debut LP from 14 Iced Bears, a lo-fi psychedelic garage band who were lumped in with the "twee" genre, not entirely without justification, presumably due to an earlier association with Sarah Records. (Specifically, Sarah released a single of theirs, not included here, shortly before they signed with Thunderball Records for this album.) And it's not bad; they're more psychedelic than garage, but that's not a problem since those are not mutually exclusive terms. There's a distinct Velvet Underground influence happening here too, and frankly their best songs here are the most "Velvety." On the downside though, they're very "loose" (perhaps too much so for the material), the singer is clearly trying too hard to sound like he's stoned (or tripping, or both), and the stinging, treble-heavy guitar sound — while sometimes distinctive — probably made them hard for some people to listen to over the course of an entire LP. Still, they're bears, they're properly iced, and there are 14 of them, so I should just stop complaining.

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 :(
