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 13% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.3/100, a mean average of 73.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.8.

“Figured I may as well listen through the rest of Bjork's discography. EDIT: Got to a song where some Japanese bloke croaked for 10 minutes and became too annoyed to continue.”

A somewhat boring soundtrack to a movie starring Bjork herself! It's the hipster 8 Mile! Nah, I liked the movie but this isn't essential. (Edited)

You either get Bjork or you don't. I happen to enjoy her music. She has a unique voice and vision that is not always assessable but always interesting.
