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 9% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.0/100, a mean average of 76.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 76.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.4.

They're never in a hurry with their songs, so if you've only a 2 or 3 minute attention span then you're playing the wrong album. If you're happy to hear something developing, changing, subtle sounds and changes, infused with a cool high-tech soul-dub south-pacific reggae-soul sound then you're onto a winner. fat Freddy are absolutely awesome live, somehow just always get the audience going in a cool grove and band happily takes a good 10 or 15 minutes on a track!
This album is original and catchy.
For people who like to relax this is the perfect music, it is an intergration of jazz, soul, pop, dub and roots creating an unique and brilliant that everyone will love.
