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 72.9/100, a mean average of 72.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 11.9.

Tom Petty never made a bad album, which is saying something for an artist with as much longevity as he had. Hypnotic Eye is Tom Petty at his loudest and perhaps messiest, but it's still recognizably a Tom Petty album with its jangling guitars and flourishes of heartland Americana. I think my favorite track here is "American Dream Plan B," which is about as close to a political statement as he ever made. Even then, though, his view is optimistic: "Like a fool, I’m bettin’ on happiness." Me too, Tom. It's the only bet worth placing.

"Hypnotic eye" è un bel disco dall'inizio alla fine, dove oltre ad una ritrovata scrittura c'è anche un suono secco e curato, soprattutto per quanto riguarda la chitarra di Campbell.

It's times like these when I'm glad Dave Grohl didn't become "just" his drummer. It's not bad, but not really worth multiple listens.

This sounds like classic rock from tom petty & the heartbreakers, a classic rock band uncoincidentally enough. Of course, there is no song comparible to the best in his catalogue, but this is still a solid rockin' effort. What more can you ask of Tom Petty and gang at this point?
