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 71.7/100, a mean average of 71.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.6.

The first half is a fascinating rough sketch of who Death Cab will become: A noodling indie rock band with some solid post punk and slowcore influences. The second a hodgepodge of experiments that showcase some refined B-sides, and some what-ifs that are nothing short of near-misses. Unless you're a diehard (like me) You Can Play These Songs with Chords is a curio that suggests a lot of promise with a handful of highlights for good measure.
