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 23% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 73.5/100, a mean average of 72.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.5.

Good selection of covers. Most are great and done very well. A couple not so much. But overall this is a decent listen (Edited)

Although it's filled with cover songs, this is actually my 2nd favourite RATM album, behind their self-titled debut. With Renegades, the band took 12 songs and gave them a brand new identity.

Best tracks: Microphone Fiend, Renegades of Funk, I'm Housin', and Maggie's Farm

It's incredible how they can do their covers completely different from the original pieces and do however a good work. Their style it's powerful and unique (Edited)
