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 71.5/100, a mean average of 71.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.2.

Definitely my favorite Butthole Surfers album. Solo on Dust Devil is awesome. I also love Who Was in My Room Last Night?, The Wooden Song, Strawberry, Dog Inside Your Body, Goofy's Concern, Some Dispute Over T-Shirt Sales, and Dancing Fool. Wish it was a little higher ranked.

Easily their most accessible and mainstream record (for whatever that's worth). A lot of good, straight up punk songs on here, as opposed to the more experimental, psychedelic material they are known for.
