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)

There is a certain listening space for this record where it unendingly delivers. In that regard it is amazing. Only "Paracosm" is a standout track that I have listened to unquenchably, the rest are stylistically great but never groundbreaking. I like it better than "Within and Without" due to better production choices (specifically bringing back the reverb-heavy vocals that are more buried in the mix), the more upbeat tone, and the pacing.
An amazing listening experience = good album. But I'm still curious to see what will shows up after more listenings.
dreamy and beautiful - what is not to like?
Nothing insane, but a darn good album
what a disappointment comparing to their firt album and EP.
I feel like this is going to take off like Lonerism really soon.
Feel-good, dreamy, summtertime sound that always makes for an enjoyable listen.
While not by any means a fantastic album, Paracosm does do a very good job of evoking a certian feeling, one of dream-like stupor, and that more than makes up for most of its shortcomings.
