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 has a Bayesian average rating of 73.3/100, a mean average of 73.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.2.

“These are the two albums of 1997 I listened to: First an album I already own: As Romanelli puts it very well: Some really great songs surrounded by a bit too much filler. The album is just a bit too long; 15 minutes to be exact which is the total length of the two final songs which contribute…”

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. (Edited)

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. (Edited)

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.

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.

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