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 67.6/100, a mean average of 66.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.8.

As shocking as anything Alice has ever put out...but not in the way that you would expect. It's a psychedelic freakout more than it has anything to do with snakes or guillotines. This makes for a surreal listening experience, especially because it's far too late to put *that* version of Alice's career back into the bottle, so to speak. All that aside, though, Pretties is actually a pretty solid record, if the listener can get past the "this isn't what I'd hoped for" mentality that they would undoubtedly experience.
It's also probably the only Alice record where you'd do better (far better) to listen to the album as a whole, and not just cherry picking your favorite songs.
I think overall this is an intensely fascinating, slightly misguided, questionably mixed piece of psych rock that helped to challenge some auditory boundaries.
"Today Mueller" reminds me of Jeff Tweedy and Wilco.
A pretty unique piece of Zappa-esque psychedelic rock. Apple Bush, Reflected, Today Muller and Levity Ball are forgotten gems in the Alice Cooper catalog.
