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 12% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.4/100, a mean average of 73.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.0.

This is a really good album that you fall asleep but in a good way. You don't need to pay attention to it but if you do, it's rewarding in its own unique experience. Diverse yet cohesive. This album isn't very elaborate and developed as their later releases but it's not meant to be. Their masterpiece is Bloom but self titled is meant to be heard differently. Relax, turn off your mind, and float downstream

Apple Orchard is the big highlight.
