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 71.1/100, a mean average of 70.9/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 70.9/100. The standard deviation for this album is 12.7.

Has all the hallmarks of a first record. Weak production and the songs are kinda sloppy, but the potential for what they would go on to do is clearly on display here.

The instrumentation is lackluster and the production does it no favors. The songs also are all pretty one note even if they do have some catchy moments. Attack on Memory was a huge improvement, but you can still see some of that potential here.
