Rating metrics: 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 72.6/100, a mean average of 72.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.6/100. The standard deviation for this album is 10.1.

I love Ghost and think they are making some of the most important music in the world today

For me this is where it began: 2016'2 'Poestar'

This EP consists of 5 tracks 4 of which are covers , the one original here "Square Hammer" is a cracker and apparently only just missed out on being included on the album 'Meliora' from the same year

Track 2: "Nocturnal Me" - Echo & the Bunnymen cover from their album 'Ocean Rain' (1984)

Track 3: "I Believe" - Simian Mobile Disco cover from the album 'Attack Decay Sustain Release' (2007) , and trust me this original is 3 minutes of pure disco

Track 4:"Missionary Man" - Eurythmics cover from their album 'Revenge' (1986)

Track 5:"Bible" - obscure Imperiet cover from their self titled album (1988)

It's only 5 tracks but Ghost deliver AGAIN
