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 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 81.2/100, a mean average of 80.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.6.

This is a thoroughly enjoyable album with a lot of great songs on here. It isn't as frantic as most punk music and that really works in its favour as it makes the music stand out. The songs are still reasonably short but they feel more complete and like they have a lot about them in comparison to other tracks in this genre. They feel like they possess more depth which makes for some challenging moments but if the record is given some patience it is very rewarding. Overall, a solid punk record that is unique and makes for a great experience for the listener.
