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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 82.4/100, a mean average of 81.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.3.

This is their best album and I Appear Missing is their best song. Furthermore this is the definition of all killer, no filler. (Edited)
Perhaps the most fully formed, emotionally evocative rock albums in recent memory. I Appear Missing should go down in history as a genuine classic.
Frankly, I believe 'I Appear Missing' is the best song of 2013.
I have to say, I prefer this album to Songs for the Deaf. Very consistent, perfectly paced.
I spent most of 2014 thinking Reflektor was the best album of 2013, and yet here I am feeling like this is one of the best albums ever made. It combines both personal and truly beautiful lyrics with some badass music. Amazing album.
