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 has a Bayesian average rating of 68.0/100, a mean average of 65.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 66.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.5.

Here's the thing , I'm not particularly into this new M&S sound or album .. but
(1) Marcus is quoted as saying: "We are really happy with this album , its the album that represents us" . So in other words its the album THEY wanted to make. Kudos for that , good on them (Respect)

(2) It's not the complete car crash some are claiming: opener "42" , track 2 "Guiding Light" , "Woman" , "October Skies" and "Forever" actually go OK and are well worth hearing

(3) In many ways the band were in a no win situation with this album , release 'Sigh No More' Part 2 and cue the back lash. TBH I'm glad they went down the new sound road , I'd much prefer a band to push the boundary's rather than rehash the same sound over and over ALA cookie cutters Foo Fighters

This isn't 'Babel' and wasn't meant to be , don't complain about "No Banjo's" just go and listen to their back catalogue

What happened to the banjo?
This is not Mumford and Sons anymore.
