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 72.8/100, a mean average of 73.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 73.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 15.5.

All right we're rating albums here. What shall we do with the songs ? How do I rate an album with fillers ? I don't know ! I think the best would be to record those excellent songs on an old cassette and undig an old walkman, an then listen to "Fuel Up", open your eyes and you're 9 years earlier. Anyway, I decided to rate the album without the fillers

All right, we're rating albums here... but what about a "half-baked" album with three or four treats ? What shall we do with them ? I don't know, I guess I'll remove the fillers a
This album sounds a bit like if a half-baked Fleet Foxes cover band and a half-baked The Shins cover band met up and tried to make their own sound, sadly only resulting in yet another half-baked indie pop record.
'Zorbing' is a guilty pleasure though.
Good album especially the opening three tracks
