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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.6/100, a mean average of 73.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

My Dearest LAF2.
It's supposed to spell PBVSGM, as in Panda Bear Vs. the Grim Reaper, and alternative title of the album.

It takes some time to "experience" a Panda Bear album, and this one is no different. Deep, complex, sometimes almost bizarre, it takes you on a journey that is both ethereal and entirely personal. "Boys Latin" and "Tropic of Cancer" are two standouts for me. It's not an album for the casual listener, but for the serious ones who are ready for a clear departure from the norm. Good stuff!

Great album that features both light and dark material which makes it a more complete and I say slightly better album than Tomboy. Person Pitch is still my favorite but once again Panda Bear creates something amazing.
Quality as you would expect from pb. Boys Latin is fucking ace!
great start to the new year, it's different from his previous stuff and has this big feeling of a battle between light and dark throughout the album. Love it.
