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 has a Bayesian average rating of 71.8/100, a mean average of 70.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.8.

Such an underrated, overlooked album. Far better than Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix that everyone seems to go crazy about! This is their masterpiece.

Very laid back album. It feels like Maroon 5 at times. Easy going pop music. I remember they sounded indie rock later on. It's still a nice feeling.

Great album, some tracks disappointed me, but like in United even the disappointing ones aren't bad.
