Rating metrics: Help 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 9% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.8/100, a mean average of 73.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.4.

Short, fast, furious with the majority of songs just topping the minute mark. Try singing along to them. Not a shit show. How Jello can verbalize at the speed he does is beyond me. This is probably more one for the fanatic DK fans. Wouldn't be the one to introduce them to newcomers. Favorite line is from 'Moral Majority' - "Masturbating with a flag and a bible." Hilarious as ever.
