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 is rated in the top 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.9/100, a mean average of 74.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.2.

Difficult to explain why I like this. Something about its immediacy and Detroit-style rawness. Of course, the punk core stylings are nearly outdone by another 2014 favorite, Ought's More Than Any Other Day.
This is an oversimplification, but this album reminds me of the strokes if they had been obsessed with Manchester rather than New York. Solid album.
