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 is rated in the top 2% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 78.9/100, a mean average of 78.7/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 82.0/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.2.

Well, unlike minimum maximum, which were mostly reworks of the original material, these were done in the same style as the originals. And if you're a fan, it's fascinating to hear them redo their entire catalog with just enough difference to make it an exciting and trippy experience. Probably just to fans only though. Plus, it was all done for their 3D movie!!! And there's one disc here that's remixed in surround sound. Which is awesome.
Brilliant material, but honestly what's the point if we already have 2005's "Minimum-Maximum" ? Feels like a redundant cash-in.
a cash-in
