Rating metrics: Help 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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.5/100, a mean average of 77.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 77.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.9.

I just listened to this record last night. I was really impressed with the mood of the record. It's gloomy and somber. It sounds like a whole album of musical sorrow for something. The strings and voices and drums all contribute. There's almost no wasted space, it's a record completely devoted to an emotional state. The end result is a really really well executed album. It's an almost overwhelming aesthetic record. Beautiful, and sad. Loved it.
