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 73.3/100, a mean average of 72.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

Did not like this at all. Massive disappointment. To the bottom of the pile never to see the light of day again
A refreshing dive into 80s synthpop after the laid-back "Seventh Tree". It may seem slightly facile, but damn it's so catchy and groovy. "Head First" is a very likeable record that never once drags.

Unshamefully poppy and synthy. I LOVE it. When they go for a sound, they really GO for it.
After the lush "Seventh Tree", Goldfrapp make a welcome return to synthpop, albeit taking cues from the cheesy 80s. Although that may sound like a recipe for disaster, they execute it perfectly and it certainly didn't deserve the lukewarm reception it received. "Head First" is a short and sweet 38 minute record and every track has something going for it. Even if it's not one of their strongest works, the iconic duo still remained a cut above their pop peers by crafting such a catchy, consistent and overall impressive album.
