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 3% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 77.4/100, a mean average of 78.1/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 78.1/100. The standard deviation for this album is 9.3.

Probably one of the best 21st century neo-psychedelic concoctions so far. As good (aka joyous and harmless) a trip as it can get.

Pure joy! I love it! I've never heard an album so bustling with happiness and humanness and love. I just feel uplifted having heard this. The way everything blends together turns this album into one big happy sound soup. I barely even call this "electronica", its just awesome.
