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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.6/100, a mean average of 73.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.0.

Ethereal, hypnotic, sometimes meandering, sometimes frustrating, often beautiful. Be-In and Good Morning are gorgeous and dreamy. Cool as Kim Deal, Holiday and Last Junkie are poppy bangers. On the other hand, Minnesoter and I Love You stop the album dead in its tracks- and the fact that they're tracks 3 and 5 don't do the sequencing any favors. If The Dandys had exhibited some restraint and cut this album down to 10 - 12 tracks it would be an absolute classic.

Some great tracks on this. The Dandy's do have a unique style which gives them there own flavor. Picks for myself - Boys Better, Junkie on Earth, & Every Day Should Be a Holiday. Bit of filler having a monotonous plodding drone to them but overall a decent album. Last two tracks could of been left out.

I have fond memories of being in a stoner reverie listening to the hypnotic, dreamy guitar whilst supine on my bed in the mid 90s. I much prefer this to any of their templated, poppier stuff after the critically acclaimed Thirteen Tales (which is a great album). Come Down has a far more organic, meandering sound and is well worth a listen.

Had a few enjoyable moments, punctuated by a couple of longer, less enjoyable ones.

I bought this album (the first DW album I owned) because I heard and loved Junkie. The album is consistent but not spectacular. If it wasn't for compiling this chart it's not an album I'd rush to pick up on a regular basis. Let down by a few 'plodders' but overall 7/10.

The critics seem to have thought this was mediocre. I can't see why, it's consistently good.

Some really great songs ("Be In", "Cool As Kim Deal", "Not If You Were The Last Junkie On Earth")surrounded by a bit too much filler.
