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 73.3/100, a mean average of 73.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 16.2.

I don't really like Paramore, but I actually like this. Probably because I listened to it as a teen I guess. (Edited)

Absolutely love this album, especially if it's the international version that features Decode which is one of my favourite songs by Paramore. The tracks listing is incredible with some classics like Ignorance and the Only Exception.

Most underrated album of 2009 next to Fantasies by Metric. Does this website or do the people on it have something against catchy modern alternative pop/rock music? Because this stuff is actually really good if you drop the preconceptions and just give it a chance. I don’t think there’s a single bad song on Brand New Eyes.

I felt like I was being shouted at for taking the time to listen. So much anger but so little substance.
