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 15% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 73.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.2/100. The standard deviation for this album is 13.0.

Most comparable to Mezzanine, but not quite as good. A mostly dark album. My favourites are Future Proof and What Your Soul Sings.

Mesmerizing beauty. Probably my favorite Massive Attack. Listen to it outside at night on a cool day.

This record is gorgeous. A post rock, downtempo, and triphop record that gets to me. Love the atmosphere these songs make. In the far reaches of space or in the distant tundra on a deserted planet, this record gets to me perfectly.

This is not my favorite Massive Attack album. I listen to it occasionally. They are an interesting group and I like their sound. If you are intrigued by this check out their earlier records.

It's a 3D's solo,not Massive Attack.

Post-rock,electronica,beautiful vocals...etc.

Not too bad.

What's the point in saying it's an average trip-hop album if you're not even a fan of the genre! Also Massive Attack don't even like to be labelled that.
