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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.0/100, a mean average of 80.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 80.4/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.5.

Nearly missed this one but so glad I didn't , Nick Cave Live in Copenhagen is a tour de force and features menacing versions of "Jubilee Street" ( 'Push the Sky Away' 2013) , "Distant Sky" ('Skeleton Tree' 2016) , "From Her to Eternity" ('From Her to Eternity' 1984) and "The Mercy Seat" ('Tender Prey' 1988)
Short (28 minutes) but essential for Cave fans
100/100

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
