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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.7/100, a mean average of 73.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.0.

Looking to discover some great music from 2001 I checked out ‘ Comfort Eagle’ and was pleasantly surprised... this album goes alright. So Short Skirt Long Jacket is the obvious reference point here but it’s far from the best thing here with ‘ Commissioning A Symphony In C ‘ and ‘ Comfort Eagle ‘ tremendously entertaining tracks. The remaining tracks are really solid. So yeah Cakes 4th Album is a fun rollicking and entertaining affair. Two thumbs up , I’m so surprised.

Nothing new... same dead-pan delivery, cute lyrics, and samey-sound. One Cake album = any Cake album.
This comment is beneath your viewing threshold.
Cake was and always has been an oddball, groovy American Alt/Rock outfit with an undeniable 90's vibe. On this record, they picked up where they left off with 1998's "Prolonging The Magic" as they transitioned over to Columbia Records. This outing featured a couple of radio hits ("Love You Madly", "Short Skirt, Long Jacket" etc)and a track arrangement that really gels together nicely. If you enjoy "Fashion Nugget" I'd recommend this as well.
