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 70.9/100, a mean average of 70.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.2.

With each passing album, The Jicks are remind me more & more of Junta-era Phish and less & less of my beloved Pavement.

edit: What am I talking about. I'm always going love Malkmus. The boy can't help it. :)

The Jicks somehow manage to sound more polished yet looser at the same time. A band with relaxed confidence in the material.

First album of 2014 that I actually can dig. Very cool mix of indie/alt with quirky ben folds flavoring. I like it!

"J Smoov" and "Chartjunk" are pretty nice tracks. Definitely one of the best albums of January 2014.
