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 is rated in the top 22% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.6/100, a mean average of 72.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.7.

“So good, and it came out in exactly the right place at exactly the right time. Couldn't imagine 2016 closing without it. A much needed roll call. Couldn’t agree more. I’m just going to leave these here: Feel free to do what you like with them.”

Not as powerful as The Woods, and that's okay. This is a great record.

I think this is is a very well crafted album and really an exciting beginning of '15.

This album sure is costrasting - super tight rhythms and beats and great vocals while confusing to keep up - consistency though is a key feature for these contrasts.

i like the instrumentation but the vocals kind of get stale for me, as well as the song structures. some cool concepts but i wish they had pushed them a little further. great production

Love the band to death but this record just seems flat and completely unnecessary, some catchy outings in "No Cities to Love" and "Fangless", but other than that this 'comeback' record lacks the raw energy of their previous releases, and thus never really holds my interest for long

Like most of their stuff on first listen, I find myself liking them but not in love. Over time and a couple more listens it quickly becomes one of my favorites and this is no different.
