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 9% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.9/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.3.

Personally, I think it's a bit long, but nonetheless a very interesting record from Arca.
"Mutant" is a weird and melancholic creature that could have done with trimming away a few tracks, but it's still an impressive piece from Arca who will go on to even greater things with his self-titled record

I love the perplexing sonic madness Arca brings to his solo work. One moment you're succumbing to a bearable tension and then its a full-on assault or an entirely new & frightening direction.

Prepare to be pummelled by this blissful bullyboy of an album.
