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 4% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.4/100, a mean average of 77.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.6.

i revisit this album once a month, at least. I love how organic the beats sounds and how her melodic voice fits with the beats. This duo has made some serious experiments for this. It's worth a listen.

Sylvan Esso's fusion of quirky folk and earnest electropop is instantly charming, at least to me, because it feels like the most natural outgrowth of North Carolina's divergent yet complimentary music scenes: the folky LEAF festival scene, which is really a celebration of the natural beauty of the Southern Appalachians and the music inspired by it, and the Moogfest scene, which is a tribute to the creative potential of technology. That, in a nutshell, is Sylvan Esso. "Coffee" is an ideal place to start when trying to wrap your head around their sound: "Wild winter, warm coffee / Mind's gone, do you love me?"
