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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.8/100, a mean average of 75.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.6.

Enjoyable catchy electronic album with a hint of New Order in there too. All the tracks have merit apart from the last one which is a bit boring for me. My favourites are Lights and Music, Strangers in the Wind and Unforgettable Season.

One of my favorite dancey, pop-y synthy summer jam albums.

Are those butterflies in my stomach? No. It's Cut Copy.
Has one pretty good intro, and one of my favourite songs of the past decade. But it's all this has, not a personal favourite, and it's not that good when fully listened

I've been listening to these songs for years without knowing that it was Cut Copy. Anyway, this is solid.

Definitely recommend these guys if you like The Avalanches and LCD Soundsystem. Great mix of pop rock and electronic that feels pretty sophisticated despite being an absolute blast of fun to listen to. Highlights are Feel The Love, So Haunted, and Hearts on Fire.
