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 72.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.8.

This album reminds me of Nirvana's Bleach. Good grunge.

One of the pioneers of the Seattle grunge movement. A little on the heavier side favoring the metal-side of grunge (AiC & Soundgarden) more so than the punk side like (Nirvana & Mudhoney). Best comparison I can make is Jesus Lizard meets the Melvins. This and God's Balls are both pretty good with this one being a little better sounding/produced thanks to Butch Vig.

Top tracks: Jinx, Delinquent, Flame Tavern, Candi, & 3-D Witch Hunt
