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 38.0/100, a mean average of 32.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 32.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 27.3.

This might be the worst album of the 90s. Not even joking. It doesn't even deserve a rating.

Mike Love's "Pet Sounds" is so bad it's impressive.

It shouldn't be possible to make an album so corny, disjointed, out-of-touch and uncomfortably horny as this.

Why, in God's holy name, was this summoned out of Satan's anus and then eaten by Mike Love and shat back out by him?
