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 13% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.3/100, a mean average of 73.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

“Definitely this. It's just two guys but a third member would ruin it. Their energy makes up for any lapse in sound. Yeah they can't sing, but they're so energetic that it doesn't really matter. And to a lesser extent this. It's not exactly raw energy, but it just seems like the type of music a…”

“Maybe just bad because of a lack of imagination :-k For the rest I'm going through my collection of favorite records and some of the covers might be ugly but I love them anyway because I hold them so dearly and in a way they are all good symbolisations of the albums they represent.”

Probably a better overall album than Celebration Rock. The main difference is that the latter has a much more energetic sweep that is impossible to resist, making it a better party record. This is the Japandroids record to listen to alone in your room. Great lyrics. Hope to follow this band for many years to come.

A pretty good album. Dumb name, but good album. Actually. The band's name is pretty dumb too. Ah well, indie pride. Shoegaze elements in here, with indie rock. Not much more to say. Wet Hair is my favourite track off here.

Glad I decided to check out this one, has a bit more variety than Celebration Rock. Both very good albums, i'll be following them closely from now on.
