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 has a Bayesian average rating of 72.2/100, a mean average of 72.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.7.

A fresh and lovely album full of excellent ambitious songs, delivered in a bombast that suits the music perfectly. Some brilliant tracks in, made up love song, trains to Brazil, and, Sao Paulo. Guillemots made some good records after this but none come close to the beauty and invention of this album.

Inventive, interesting, and curious. Still, borders on saccharine at times, such as "Blue Would Still Be Blue." I really loved "Made Up Love-Song #43" and "If the World Ends".

"I think this is the most underrated album of all time, but it could be really overrated by me, I suppose."

That is probably the stupidest comment on this site. It's no surprise it came from me.

I think this is the most underrated album of all time, but it could be really overrated by me, I suppose.

This album is a little bit unconventional, but it's got a lot of heart. It's ambitious but unpretentious. It's eccentric and grand, but it's simple and honest. The music is absolutely superb; the lyrics are whimsically witty and delightful. 10/10 and borderline-eleven.
