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 7% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 75.2/100, a mean average of 74.4/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 75.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.6.

If you think taking influence from Blue Oyster Cult and Black Sabbath is generic... than god help you.

Yeah, I dunno what's particular generic about this album. Excellent guitar work, very unique lyrics and vocal work, a lot of variety, melodicism, and phenomenal dynamic structuring. Great album.

Haha, I thought he sounded like Weird Al, too. Anyways, it's decent, but really generic. It's alright I guess.

I wouldn't expect such an album to come out in 2010, I would have guessed it's much older.
