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 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 73.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.7.

These hairy old men can really rock. Warren Ellis runs this show live with his violin and effects pedals. Wonderful band. Will there be a third album or should they stop now
I'm a big fan of Nick Cave. Love the dark gothic sound he does so well. With Grinderman they are musically heavier than his work with The Bad Seeds. I'm a big fan of heavy rock so in theory this should be gold. It's alright, there's some really good tracks but overall there's nothing that makes it memorable.

Very good album by the nick and the seeds' rock'n'roll committee.
This is pure rock power with loads of tension and trippy noise.
Nick Launay's sound contributes immensely to the unique and in your face aesthetic.
