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 tracks can have several thousand ratings)

Very simply, MGMT at or very, very close to their best. Sensational, creative pop.
Definitely a 5 star song.
The best song on the album, no doubt!
Instant classic that most definitely beats out most of what the band is known for from their debut.
I love the atmosphere of this song and the songwriting is on point here.
Super 80's vibe but pretty good, too!
Really excelled themselves on this one!
This has become my favorite MGMT track--even surpassing "Kids" and "Siberian Breaks".
Rivals some of the tracks on side 1 of Oracular Spectacular for their best song
