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 8% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.1/100, a mean average of 74.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.9.

Yeah, I get the hype. It's an impressively written and performed album that I happen to find exhausting.

A very unique sounding album. I'm impressed by the incredibly clean instrumentals and the idiosyncratically authentic lyrics that cover a wide variety of topics but never falter. From the start, the album is abrasive but it also possesses the chaotic form that continues throughout. Consistently great. (Edited)
