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 77.1/100, a mean average of 75.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.3.

Chapterhouse put a bit of an electronic spin shoegaze, which had yet to be merged together in the way these guys did. And they did a great job.

Criminally underrated. Like if Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine had a lovechild.

Breather and Pearl are great... the rest is very forgettable, however
Solid, but slightly forgettable and a little below average.
