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 73.0/100, a mean average of 72.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

There are some awesome songs in here, but overall I would say their previous effort is superior. 6.7/10

Decent album, but not near the best work of Rise Against in my opinion

This album doesn't get the love it deserves. It's really, really good! It has some amazing instrumentation and even greater vocals. Paper Wings was the first song I ever heard that absolutely amazed me. This album was my favorite a few years ago. Even though most of my music tastes have changed, this still is great and I'll highly recommend.

Possibly my favorite effort from Rise Against. Somewhere between their early hardcore sound and later more accessible sound. Swing Life Away is a beautiful song.
