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 72.7/100, a mean average of 72.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.1.

Lacks the emotional urgency and peak moments of July, but does have it's charms in it's hazier, dreamier compositions, and certainly the first Nadler album that goes for a broader, seamless album-long sound rather than the usual high-low mixture of her more experimental folk ballads.

I like some really slow, sad, boring music, but this isn't doing it for me. Not a fan.

Melancólico e belíssimo. Parece uma Lana Del Ray sem camadas Pop!
