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 64.5/100, a mean average of 63.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 63.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 19.6.

The first track is what sold this album, and the next two are good, but the rest of the album is just... OK. After their consistent first album, they worked more variety into their song styles - to the detriment of the album, I think. Nothing terrible or even bad, it's "alright" overall. But the first album is better.

I absolutely hated this band when they started playing them on the radio when I was a kid. However, I'm willing to revisit this album because of the amazing cover art and the fact that one of the band members looks like he wants to be Robert Mapplethorpe.

starting with a killer this record is loosing slow but steady favor. all together i can listen to it without wrath, but it seemes quite meaningless to me.
