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 67.6/100, a mean average of 65.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.7/100. The standard deviation for this album is 18.4.

This album features three amazing singles
One of them being the hugely underrated and forgotten "Do you believe in shame" = A++
I Dont Want your Love = A
All She wants is = B+
It features a few more very good songs, then some dated filler songs and one unspeakably bad song (Drug)
However if you like DD and the mid/late 80's sound it is definitely worth a listen
