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 12% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.4/100, a mean average of 73.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.1.

Compared to the superlative Clube da Esquina it's a modest effort, but that modesty is part of its charm. It's wonderful to hear Lô Borges deeply personal style, his haunting melodies and unique arrangements, in such a carefree, 'throw it against the wall and see what sticks' album. There's some filler (the instrumental tracks), but there's more inspiration in the good songs than in most albums from the MPB big names. (Edited)

Solo debut of Lô, AKA "the sneakers album". His strongest songs were already recorded in "Clube da Esquina", but this is not a bad record. (Edited)

Lô Borges se tornou uma das minhas grandes inspirações, realmente tinha um talento inconstestável para a composição. Fico feliz em saber dão a ele o valor que merece, esse disco chegou até nas mãos do Alex Turner para compor seu disco no Artic Monkeys.
