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)
This album has a Bayesian average rating of 72.5/100, a mean average of 72.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

"I am the type of girl buses splash with rain." This is rapidly escalating up my favourite albums of 2014 list. The latest in a long line of America twee, lo-fi, hopeless romantics that includes Jonathan Richman, Beat Happening, The Moldy Peaches. Simple sentiments and youthful abandon abound. "I wanna go dancing in the public eye." Its songs are often too short for their own good, but the brevity is refreshing and welcome in a time where sprawling epics, like Reflektor or Random Access Memories, appear to making some sort of comeback in the public/Pitchfork consciousness. It's honest, heartwarming, likely to paint a big, stupid grin across your face. Or you might hate it for being a nothing record about nothing. "I'm bitter like olives, that's why you like them and I don't."

The songs themselves are fine, but the lyrics strike me as infantile in places. There is such a thing as overly twee after all.
This is too fucking cute. But so shoooort :(
