Rating metrics: Help 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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.1/100, a mean average of 75.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.3.

Reminds me of Tame Impala. Has a psychedelic/late sixties feel to it. Very well done and highly recommended.

No, I don't think so. Especially since I'm a Real Estate fan, I feel quite the opposite because it seems this album has more ambition than some of Real Estate's albums. Idk.

Even though the album has the absence of a high point or any remblence of a stand out track, it manages to have a perfect consistency throughout that leaves the listener completely satisfied. A very good album by Ducktails
