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 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.7/100, a mean average of 77.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.0.

I hate that I like this so much. I mean, as I was reading the lyrics on spotify, I got a "wonderful" picture of a girl in a unicorn costume holding a tiny yippy dog- also in a unicorn costume. But theey have brilliant sporatic songwriting (Kinda reminds me of the Microphones "the glow, pt. 2"), but do it in a very poppy, yet also not poppy way. I don't know if I'm actually making sense or not here- so just listen to it yourself.

This is NUTS. The best tracks, "i don't wanna die" ("I predict: i die in a plane crash / I see it now, i die in a car on tour "), "tuff ghost" ("The tuff ghost is invincible / No guts came out when he bled"), "sea ghost" (and its pseudo-flute intro into an aquatic tale of host & parasite), "jellybones" (an incurable bone condition? say it ain't so!), "les os" and "child star" really make this album. Warped (via production) vocals, warped delivery, warped lyrics all centered around stardom and death, and warbly vid-game-esque synths. Crazy sh|t. So bat-sh|t crazy that its "concept album" properties are heavily obscured in the insanity. "jellybones" is uproariously insane and yet still cocaine-addictive, especially once that distorted guitar kicks in at "jelly,jelly,jelly,...jellybones". And "child star" is the centerpiece with its sullen guitar intro lamenting the life of a child star sung from both the star and fan's point of view. Sing's star: "Is there a photo of me on your wall in short short-shorts / Or zipped down jeans?". Fan responds his fanmail was "returned to sender" entering in a back-and-forth with the child star who's in denial about his declining stardom and fanbase devolving in a wonky, almost-giddy, laid-back hate-fest.

Great, fun, and weird album. Deserves a bit more credit than it gets.

One of the most underrated albums on this site. It's absolutely incredible, and I think that if there is such a thing as a '10/10' album, then this is it.

This album is amazing. I love how the songs are so structureless while at the same time being very melodic and accessible; as well as the extremely unique instrumentation.
