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 16% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 74.1/100, a mean average of 73.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 74.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.0.

Astute Observation, Brad1770, I heard the J&MC similarities, too! This is a fun album with lively tempos and the impeccable two-part harmonies of Wagner and Foo.

The irony isn’t lost on me that the Raveonettes released more material that sounded like The Jesus and Mary Chain than The Jesus and Mary Chain beginning with this wonderful debut
