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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.8/100, a mean average of 74.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.1.

Caetano's most experimental record was critically acclaimed, but hated by the public. Influenced by concrete poetry and several avant-garde musicians, including John Lennon's records with Yoko Ono (one of the tracks is called "Sugar Cane Fields Forever"), is mostly an editing experiment, with nods to Brazilian Northeastern folk music. It also uses the stereo mixing to mix with the listener's head. Very challenging, but it will grow on you if you keep with it.

Um WTF da porra esse álbum, porém magistral!
É preciso dissecá-lo a cada audição para assim vislumbrar sua poética, desbrucar-se sobre cada faixa musical para ver o quanto é belo e coeso.
