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 67.3/100, a mean average of 66.5/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.4.

This is really a great album. Some catchy tunes. Lyrics that sick in your head type of stuff.

Pleasantly surprised, thought it may be a bit of a novelty record but actually there are some really nice songs on this - well worth a listen. if you've heard Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm then you know what to expect.

Jerry Harrison's ("Talking Heads") production lifts this piece into ripe rainforest canopies. An underrated band in its prime.

I don't get all the really low ratings for this album. Seems like quite a likeable album to me. Not great, but if you liked it in the 90s, still makes for interesting listen every couple years or so. That voice is somewhat of a novelty. Most songs are catchy even if you can't quite remember them off-hand. I never poured over the lyrics... but seems like your better off not. I don't have much faith in these guys as philosophers lol

The first CD I ever owned. Probably awful, but I just can't dislike it. As my voice changed, I wanted to be Brad Roberts.

It doesn't matter if this was intended to be ironic or not, this still is the worst of the unlikely 90s success stories. It's like your eardrums are being assaulted with heaps of sugar mixed with broken glass. Its...just....ugh

Fun band, great melodies, and simple arrangements that get in your head. However, on many tracks, the lyrics seem written by a 10 year old boy, or a stoner on a tootsie roll bender.

Fun! There are some real gems on here. Personal favorites of mine are "In The Days Of The Caveman" & "How Does A Duck Know?". I'm sure you can find this cheap somewhere.
