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 11% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.9/100, a mean average of 74.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.6.

Awesome album.
Tom waits described his new album as 'cubist funk', and on the brilliant second track, hoist this rag, you can see what he means. Real gone, is probably Tom Waits' most challenging record. It's full of clattering blues and beautiful acoustic based songs. Opener, top of the hill, is scratchy rock with Tom adding his own vocal percussion, Waits' beat box. He uses it through most of the record, and dispenses completely with his piano. Sins of my father, is an eleven minute epic, trampled rose, is excellent, as is, dead and lovely, and, metropolitan glide. Shake it, is Waits in his shambolic garage rock vein, and, don't go into that barn, at his scariest. The best track is the protest song, the day after tomorrow, it's superb. Another excellent Tom Waits album.
