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 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.1/100, a mean average of 76.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.0.

Not since the hey-day of Bardo Pond have I heard acid-fried psychedelia this good, even if the emphasis is more on Jefferson Airplane and Fleetwood Mac rather than My Bloody Valentine. A supergroup of sorts, made up of Espers and Six Organs of Admittance amongst others. It's a good debut, even if they do get lost in a fog of their own making towards the end.

Really like this, as a fan of Meg Baird (Espers) and Comets on Fire. I agree with the other comment that it occasionally gets lost in a bit of a fog, but at the same time felt it to be an especially rewarding and cathartic listen.
Got to agree with the previous contributors. It hits most of the right notes, most of the time. Great album (Edited)
