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 72.4/100, a mean average of 71.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 72.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.0.

“I know nothing about this band...this is the first thing I've heard from them. I gotta admit I was a bit worried at first during track one, with how he seemed to be singing in the same style as Matt Bellamy, and there was a bit of a Muse vibe going on, but then he started shout singing on the…”

I wasn't a big fan of Thrice until I heard this album. When I did, I thought, there is hope for American rock in the 2000s. Also notable releases by the band are Major/Minor and The Alchemy index, which almost made this list instead because of its concept: The 4 classical elements of Fire/Water and Air/Earth.

The title track alone is reason to own this classic
