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 is rated in the top 13% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.6/100, a mean average of 74.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.3.

Always hard to summarize an UNKLE album. This keeps in line with 'Never Never Land' with it's under current dystopian feel. There's a slight taste of variety in a few tracks with the guest artists brought in but still keeping with the overall theme. Not their best but up there.

My favourite album of UNKLE's, from a decent collection. Highlights are Morning Rage, Keys to the Kingdom and Lawless.

Sounds like DJ Shadow producing QOTSA. In other words, it's brilliant
