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 70.7/100, a mean average of 69.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.1.

A tough listen. Following Jagged Little Pill was always bound to be difficult but this was too long and really lacking all the spark of the previous album. Thank U and UR were good, but the rest of the tracks were no good. (Edited)

I like Thank U and some of the other tracks are OK, but the overall impression I get from this album is dreary. OK maybe some of these tracks may grow on me on repeated listens, but how many? I have played this album quite a few times now, do I continue to re-play this album in the hope that some tracks will eventually 'click' with me, or should I give up and listen to music I already like? It has been said that repeatedly listening to music you don't like until you eventually do is a form of brainwashing. If I do get to like more of these tracks and start playing them more my wife will walk in and tell me to 'turn that rubbish off'. Headphones then, why bother.

A good album that could have been a great album with a shorter runtime.

A brilliant album almost like a book that you don't mind reading over & over again. This is not as immediate as J.L.P. you do have to listen to it numerous times as different tracks grow on you at different rates. The only criticism is that it could be a couple of tracks shorter maybe drop The Couch and the last track. Overall though it is an amazing journey of an album.
