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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.4/100, a mean average of 77.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.2.

Bought this one only because i knew the album cover, and that it was super cheap (i actually got it for free). I didn't expect it to be so good though.
Lovely and enchanting! Kept me until the very end.

Spencer Krug's projects just keep progressing better-and-better. Once again he has bested himself. The guitar playing and arrangements are deep but yet these songs and his delivery make these his accessible songs yet. "idiot heart" is one of those multi-sectional songs I love to sing along with, especially the line I attribute to george w bush -- "I hope that you die / in a decent pair of shoes / you've got a lot more walking to do / where you're going to". "apollo and the buffalo and anna anna anna oh!", expansive "dragon's lair" and "black swan" (with its grinding, fuzzed guitar) also share a broad prog-like scope and indie rockin' hooks. The female vocals add a nice touch.

My favourite album of 2009. Should appeal to fans of Wolf Parade and possibly Arcade Fire.
