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 5% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 76.1/100, a mean average of 75.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.4.

A buddy of mine in Reno has this album in the CD player of his car for the better part of the four years I lived there, having been introduced to M. Ward at the Treasure Island Music Festival at some point in the mid-2000s. I was hooked upon hearing it. There's a sort of spiritual gravity to music in M. Ward's niche in the musical world because it exists in the cracks between genres and passing movements. Because it can mix-and-match from so many points in musical history--everything from Delta blues to alt-country to Britpop--it's an aesthetic that's brimming with ideas and unlikely to tap itself out anytime soon. That's a very good thing, since the whirling energy of "Helicopter," Ward's fantasy about rescuing innocents from the corruption and violence of the world, feels like it comes from a place where a lot of other great ideas abound.
