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 72.8/100, a mean average of 72.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.9.

wonderful power-pop album with surprisingly incisive depictions of suburban dispossession.

It was only recently I learned of the sad passing of FOW founding member Adam Schlesinger in April 2020 of COVID related complications so I’ve going back over the FOW catalogue I so adored through the 90’s and early 2000’s. The 3 peat of ‘Fountains of Wayne’ (1996), ‘Utopia Parkway’ (1999) and ‘Welcome Interstate Managers’ (2003) wrote the book on Nerd Rock, Geek Rock, Power Pop whatever you want to call it that set a new bench mark for the gene then and today some 25 years after their majestic self titled album came out

Vale Adam Schlesinger I promise you your musical legacy will never be forgotten
